Cauliflower is my favorite vegetable. I make Parathas, pickles n different varieties of dishes.

Gobi Paratha is traditional Punjabi breakfast food along with aloo paratha and pyaaz ka paratha.

I love to serve hot and crispy Gobi Paraths any time of the day.

These parathas do not need any prior preparations.  It’s very easy to make.
