The most popular way of making gobi/ mooli/ aloo/ matar or any parathas other than plain paratha are by stuffing the filling in parathas dough. You can either stuff the filling in dough, or sauté the fillings and then stuff in paratha dough or knead the filling ingredients with flour and then prepare parathas. All tastes good.
