The very best cauliflower recipe I have ever made!
Potatoes & cauliflower not anywhere near cooked after 12 minutes with lid on in a cast iron pot. I double checked the video and potatoes weren’t precooked. It smells divine.
Delicious! Thanks to your mum for sharing the recipe! I like my cauliflower a bit on the soft side, so I cooked it for 20 minutes (rather than the 12 min ).
It’s lovely seeing your mum cutting up the cauliflower stalk, I often wonder how to use the leaves and stem so knowing this is something that can be done is really useful
Love the recipe. But I think I needed to cut the potatoes and the cauliflower much smaller to get them to cook in 12 mins. I was still cooking them 30 mins later and still not fully cooked through.
Did taste delicious however when I did eat it!
Another really fabulous recipe, thank you Chetna. We are rather addicted to your food, so a huge ‘Mange Tak’ from us!
Wishing you all good things for 2024
Best Wishes from us!
