Cauliflower Peas Masala
Simple and delicious everyday dish made with cauliflower and peas tossed in a tomato based masala. Recipe with video.

This is my mum’s cauliflower and peas masala recipe that she would make once a week. This is a very simple recipe that uses a scant amount of oil and goes perfectly well with rice for an everyday South Indian lunch. Sometimes, all I do is to make a big pot of these and have this as lunch sans the rice. The green peas are starchy and will keep you full for hours.

Do not go overboard on the masala powders for this recipe. The flavors are very subtle and another important thing is to not over cook the cauliflower. Also cut the cauliflower into small florets. The size matters for this recipe. The veggies cook evenly and the masalas coat well.

Since the Indian cauliflower always has small worms inside, it’s a good idea to soak the cut florets in salted hot water for a couple of minutes. The salted water brings the worms out. Wash and drain and proceed with the recipe.
