Instructions

  1. Start by whizzing up your cauliflower in a high speed blender or food processor until it resembles rice. Alternatively chop the cauliflower finely with a knife or grate using a coarse grater.
  2. Place the oil in a large frying pan or wok and add the sliced onion, cumin seeds, cinnamon, bashed cardamom pods, cloves, turmeric, salt and bay leaves. Cook on a low heat for 5 minutes until the onions are very soft but not brown, stirring occasionally.
  3. Add in the cauliflower and frozen peas and stir to coat the in the onions and spices. Turn the heat up and cook for a further 3-5 minutes until the cauliflower is soft and just starting to brown in places and the peas are warm.
  4. Turn the heat off and serve with your favourite curry.
