Cauliflower Gravy is easy to make and delicious to taste and eat with either parathas or rice and curds. Firstly, to make Cauliflower Gravy, you need to soak the cashew nuts in milk for about half an hour.

Next, in a mixer, you need to take milk, the soaked cashews, chilli powder, turmeric power, garam masala, cumin, cardamom, and cinnamon, and grind them all into a fine paste. Keep aside the fine paste for later. Next, the cauliflower needs to be soaked in water with a pinch of salt and kept aside. Next take cut chillies, chopped ginger and garlic in a pan with heated oil and fry until the garlic changed colour to a brownish shade. Next, the ground paste, salt, water, and tomato puree need to be added to it and it needs to boil well.

Next, the paneer, peas and cooked cauliflower needs to be added to the mixture, before covering the pan and cooking the curry on medium flame till it thickens. Adding a dash of lemon juice will lend an extra zing to the curry. Garnish with coriander and serve with chapatti, naan or jeera rice. Yum!
