Priya Krishna's Indian-ish delivered another recent win. The Whole Cauliflower with Green Pea Chutney was super simple to make and required very little hands on time. The flavors weren't as compelling as her unique feta saag paneer, but the simplicity and versatility of this dish make it a definite recipe repeat.
A whole cauliflower is roasted in the oven (50 minutes in my initial attempt), while you make the Indian-spiced frozen green pea and cilantro puree. With frozen green peas, cilantro, onions, chiles, and Indian spices always in my home, this is a great last minute side option. The spicy and tart fenugreek, chile, and lime flavors come out subtly in the final puree.
I wouldn't skimp on the oil, salt, and pepper on the cauliflower (as I did in my initial attempt) because otherwise the cauliflower itself can also be a little bland.
Because of my nut allergy, I omitted the walnuts from the original recipe.
