Parathas are almost every Indians favourite food. If we go to North India we see people regularly having parathas for any one of their daily meals. Parathas can be had even without any side dish because of the delicious stuffing it has got inside.
Parathas with curd or pickle is the ultimate combination. Today I have made Cauliflower paratha and I served it with another Northindian dish; Chole Masala.
