Kadai Gobi

My family loves cauliflower. I try different varieties with this vegetable, so that we don't get fed up with it. That's how I made this side dish with some changes to the original recipe.

More over, when this vegetable is in season, we get good quality of them and I stock up to 2 - 3 of them in my fridge. Don't think that it will stay for 2-3 weeks. It will be finished within 1 week. :) We all love Cauliflower Popcorn (which is one of my popular post in my blog) and enjoy it in the tea time.

This dish goes well with phulka or roti. It has a slight tangy taste and at the same time it is a rich side dish.

Here goes the recipe...Enjoy!!!
