Transfer all the ingredients for stuffing in a wide bowl. Mix together. Let it stand for 10 minutes.  Here in this recipe i did not add chili since Im serving this to my little son as well. After 10 minutes, squeeze water out from the cauliflower mix. Place in a separate bowl.

Take a ball of dough, press with your fingers. Then stuff in cauliflower mix and roll into a ball. Cover with dry flour to prevent stickiness. Now roll that ball to chapati shapes in circular motion.

Heat griddle in high flame. Cook parathas both side by flipping till it cooks. You will notice brown spots on surface. Smear with ghee if you like. Serve hot with yogurt or any curries.
