ReplyDeleteFabulous paratha, looks awesome..
ReplyDeleteFinally, I tried the patta gobhi parathas and real flavour came up with some toppings of chopped green chillies and crushed black pepper into the grated patta gobhi.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly the final taste comes very close to the phul gobhi parathas.
Nevertheless, very interesting recipe, thx
