Shopping List
· 1 medium Cauliflower (cut into small pieces 1cm max)
· 4 handfuls of Peas
· 1 Large Onion (diced fine)
Spice Mix
· Red Chilli – 2 tsp
· Turmeric – 1 tsp
· Cumin – 1 tsp
· Coriander - 2 tsp
· Salt – 1.5 tsp
To cook
· Oil – 2 tbs
· Hing – pinch
· Mustard seeds – ½ tsp
· 3 cloves of Garlic, 4 Green Chillies crushed/chopped fine
Heat the oil on a high heat, add in the Mustard seeds and Hing, after 30 seconds add in the Onions and fry for 5 mins. Once they are softened, add in the Garlic and Green Chili, fry for 30 seconds and add in the rest of the veg. Stir and add the spice mix.
Turn the heat to low and mix well, after a minute add in a splash of water stir and cover – keep checking/stirring every 5 minutes and add little water if needed, after about 25 minutes it should be cooked, uncover and taste – adjust the seasoning if needed and add in more red chilli, cumin and coriander if needed (I added about ½ tsp of each to my taste). Cook on high for a few mins to ensure it is dry and cooked.
Serve as a side dish, or just with bread – I like to mix in a touch of Ketchup on my plate.
