  1. Add bite sized cauliflower florets in hot water(to remove worms if any). Dry them completely and then grate them finely - I used my vegetable chopper to do this.Set aside.

  3.

Then add a generous spoon full of gobi filling and gather the dough from all sides sealing it finely.How to make Gobi 65 - Step3
  4. Now again flatten it slightly with your palms and then start rolling gently. Roll it without the filling oozing out. Dust flour so that it doesnt stick. Heat a dosa tawa , transfer the gobi parathas, drizzle little oil and cook on both sides. Serve hot with raita or your favourite sidedish.How to make Gobi 65 - Step3
Gobi parathas are best when served hot with pickle raita or onion raita. Only chopping the gobis are a little tedious task otherwise making the filling is just a breeze.

My Notes:

I am sure kids will love this as its crispy and yummy. Its a easy to cook starter especially for guests lunch or dinner. We make gobi manchurian more often than this.
