A recipe for which i searched for long. I had tasted it in a marriage party. An excellent and simple recipe.
Edited after original posting.
Rich in flavours and easy to cook-great recipe
spicy, rich gobhi. My favourite shahi sabzi. Goes well with naan or kulcha. A must try recipe for cauliflower lovers.
Crisp cauliflower, green peas and curds cooked in a rich paste.
Par boiled cauliflower and green peas cooked in tomato purée and curds and rich Indian spices. Cut the ghee and this will be an extremely healthy vegetable. For me, the paste taste is out of the world and that what makes this vegetable special.
