Expert Tips

For a milder dish, use a 4-ounce can of drained chilies instead of the jalapeños.

Leftovers are perfect packed into warmed pita bread halves.

Not the best thing I've ever made, but I think with some tweaking it could be an alright dish. The oil and herb combo is a yummy way to cook the cauliflower, but the dish as a whole needs some more flavoring. I added some fresh parsley and a splash of fresh lemon juice to brighten up the flavor along with a 'heavy' measuring of spices. Maybe some diced tomatoes would be a welcomed addition as well.

I needed some way to use up my frozen peas that I had cooked the night before. I found this and thought that it looked easy and interesting. I was not disappointed. The fragrance of the spices cooking in the oil was a prelude to the taste ~ wonderful! I used sliced zucchini, instead of the cauliflower, I also added carrots instead of the split peas and banana pepper rings instead of the jalapeno peppers. I was trying to use up some of my fresh vegetables ~ can you tell??? This would be and excellent dish to do that with more often ~ the "sauce" makes any vegetable taste good!
