This looks sooo good, Soni. And perfect for my husband who is a vegetarian these days and very health and taste conscious =)
I love chickpea curries and this one looks so healthy and delicious!!

The trouble with it warming up on your side of the world is that it is cooling down over here… but at least if it is cool I can eat your curries

I love cauliflower cooked this way – i have always eaten with green peas but chickpeas are certainly going to be great addition. My mom’s (little greasy) ones are my fav though.

I have made just an Indian spiced cauliflower as a side, but I love the addition of chickpeas to make this a filling meal.

This sounds like a wonderful, hearty dish! I love reading blogs, because I learn about new food combos. It is funny I didn’t think to put cauliflower and chickpeas together, but now I am excited to try it!! Yum, Hugs, Terra
