We served this with some simple Mung Bean Dal, flatbread, pickle, onion and cucumber salad.

Mom loves simple Indian Subzi (veggie saute/stir fry) with a whole spice or two. She keeps changing up the spice(fennel, mustard, coriander or caraway seeds) and combines it with other flavors(ginger, garlic, chili etc) to make a variation of the same veggie side. This one can be changed to taste with different spices, tempering and flavor combinations.

Delicious and easy. I doubled it despite not having made it before (that’s how reliably good your recipes are!) and was so glad I did. This will be a go-to recipe whenever I have cauliflower. I made this in a rice cooker and subbed a few shakes of red pepper flakes since I didn’t have green chili. Thank you Richa!
thats awesome! so glad you loved it! This one is my Mom’s recipe and her decades of experience speaks 🙂
I made this today – pretty good! Thanks!!! 🙂
How could something this simple be this good? Yum!
mom’s magic 🙂 a few spices or flavors and the vegges shine through
