Cauliflower is one of my favorite vegetables. And indian food is one of my favorite cuisines. So an indian cauliflower dish sends me to food heaven with happy giggles!
Cauliflower is a super healthy vegetable as well. A member of the cruciferous family, it is loaded with cancer fighting nutrients, promotes a healthy heart, reduces inflammation, boosts brain health and contains many vitamins and minerals. Make sure to eat this vegetable regularly.
This dish combines the wonderful benefits of cauliflower with two other super foods, ginger and turmeric, making it a real gem of healing, detoxifying and delicious food.
