Recipe
Soya and Cauliflower Paratha
Soya and cauliflower combine really well in the stuffing as the soaked soya granules and grated cauliflower have similar a texture.
For the stuffing
1 tsp soya oil
1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1/2 cup grated cauliflower
1 tsp ginger-green chilli paste
1/8 tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
1/4 cup soaked soya granules
salt to taste
1 1/2 tbsp finely chopped mint leaves (phudina)
2 tbsp finely chopped coriander (dhania)
Other Ingriedients:
whole wheat flour (gehun ka atta) for rolling
1 1/2 tsp soya oil for cooking
For the stuffing
Heat the soya oil in a non-stick kadai and add the cumin seeds.
When the seeds crackle, add the cauliflower and sauté for 5 minutes, while stirring continuously. Sprinkle a little water if required.
Add the ginger-green chilli paste, turmeric powder, soya granules and salt and mix well. Remove from the flame and keep aside to cool.
When cool, add the mint and coriander and mix well.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and keep aside.
How to proceed
Divide the dough into 6 equal portions and roll out one portion of the dough into a 75 mm. (3") diameter circle using a little flour for rolling.
Place a portion of the stuffing in the center and fold the edges of the dough over the stuffing.
Pinch the edges together to seal the stuffing and remove the excess dough.
Flatten the dough and roll out again into a 125 mm. (5") diameter circle.
Cook the paratha on a non-stick tava (griddle) over a medium flame using ¼ teaspoon soya oil till both sides are golden brown.
Repeat with the remaining dough and stuffing to make 5 more paratha.
Serve hot.
