CAULIFLOWER PEAS KORMA RECIPE | SIDE DISH FOR ROTI

     Usually kurmas are doesn’t take place in my kitchen frequently, though i make chapathi almost everyday. Me and my hubby are not a great fan of korma and my kids too. One day when i made rotis for dinner, I was very clueless what to make as a side dish for roti and finally i landed up in making cauliflower and peas korma. Without any much complaints everyone had this.

  22. I know this is an old post but, I don't know if you noticed but, you have written in the beginning, 'Me and my hubby are not a great fan of kids and my daughter too'. You are not a great fan of kids or cauliflower? Just a small clarification.
