Ingredients

Cauliflower (1 medium head) cut into florets

Shelled / frozen peas (about 1/2 the quantity of florets)

Cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp

Fennel seeds - 1/2 tsp

Cinnamon - 1" stick (whole) or 1/4 tsp (powder)

Cardamom - 2 (Whole)

Cloves - 3 (Whole)

Tomato puree - 1.5 tbsp

Tomato ketchup - 1 tbsp (yes - this does work wonders!)

1/2 tbsp veg/sunflower oil

1/2 tbsp ghee / butter

Grind together:

15 whole cashewnuts

1tsp cumin seeds

2tsp coriander seeds

1/2 tsp red chilli powder

1 green chilli (no- not optional at all!)

4 cloves garlic

1 white onion - cubed roughly

Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp

Directions

Parboil or microwave-cook cauliflower florets until almost done and set aside

Heat oil and ghee/butter in a pan/wok.

Add cumin seeds, fennel seeds, cloves, cardamom and cinammon and fry till the seeds splutter

Add in the ground paste and tomato puree and fry in medium flame until oil separates out (a nice aroma should waft up by this time)

Add parboiled florets, peas, salt and just enough water to bring to a thick gravy consistency, lower flame and cook with covered lid until the vegetables are done.

Add 1/2 tsp sugar and ketchup and mix well

Take off flame and mix in chopped coriander saving a little to garnish.

Best serve with naan/chapatti/basmati rice and raita as a main dish (especially for a vegetarian meal) or as a side with a meat dish if you like.

This is lovely! I added it to the 'Undercover Veggies' group - cauli is one of the few veg my husband will eat, and even then only when it is covered in melted cheese - I'll try this one!
