• Marrying into an Indian family has been an
  absolute blessing on so many levels.  Most
  importantly was the opening I received into a
  cuisine I had absolutely no idea about.  Growing
  up in an Italian family with my mum as a chef I
  lived and breathed Italian food (no complaints
  here). So when I met my now husband and had my
  first meal at his family home, its fair to say I
  was a tad nervous.  The flavours I encountered
  that day were completely new to me and I must be
  honest it wasnt love at first site!  But
  overtime I grew to enjoy the new flavours and now
  I absolutely adore Indian food.
• My mother-in-law is an incredible cook and she
  has shared some of her recipes with me, which
  Ive put my own spin on.  This would have to be
  an absolute favourite Indian dish for me, and Im
  quietly confident youll agree.

• Prep time 10 minutes
• Cook time 15 minutes
• Total time 25 minutes
• Serves 8
• Ingredients
• 1/2 cup almond milk
• 1/2 head of cauliflower
• 1 cup of frozen peas

4

• 2 potatoes
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons amchur
• 1 onion
• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 2 teaspoons coriander powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 2 1/2 cups chickpea flour
• 1 cup water
• Light olive oil for frying

• Method
• Peel potato and cut extremely finely and place in
  a large bowl (potatoes need to be cut into very
  small pieces about 1cm.
• Cut the cauliflower and onion very finely.  An
  easy way is to place them in a food processer
  (one vegetable at a time so onion first and
  then cauliflower).  Place in bowl with potatoes.
• Add peas to the potato, onion, and cauliflower.
• Add salt and spices and mix through vegetables
  well. 
• Add chickpea flour and water and mix until you
  form a thick sticky mixture.  You will need to
  use your hands to massage the spices and flour
  into the vegetables. This will help release some
  water from the vegetables and form a thick
  mixture.  The mixture needs to stick together to
  form a small ball.

6

• Heat up a saucepan with a generous amount of
  light olive oil.
• Place a spoonful of the mixture into the oil.
  Turn over when cooked to cook other side.
• Serve with my delicious coriander chutney.
