Cauliflower & Peas Pepper Fry

I love cauliflower and peas combo. Have done gravy before, but have not done any stir fry with this combo. First time i tried this simple side dish and it was a great success. It was yummy and the addition of pepper powder to cauliflower gives you more taste. It was easy and quick. Here is the recipe.
Cauliflower&Peas Pepper Fry


Ingredients
  • Cauliflower florets - 200gms
  • Frozen Peas - 100 gms
  • Onions - 1, finely chopped
  • Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
  • Garam Masala - 1 tsp
  • Black Pepper powder - 1 tbsp
  • Green Chilly - 1
  • Salt to taste
  • Oil - 1 tbsp
Preparation : 
  • Separate cauliflower florets and soak them in enough warm salted water for 10 minutes. So this way any dirt and worm comes out from the florets.
  • After 10 minutes drain the water and rinse thoroughly under running water and set aside to drain.
Method :
  • Heat oil in a pan, add cumin seeds and allow it to splutter.
  • Then add the chopped onion and green chilly to it and fry till the onions becomes light golden brown in colour.
  • Add salt, cauliflower and peas to it, mix well and cook for 2 mins. Add 1/4 cup of water to it and mix well. Cover with the lid and cook for 10 minutes. Stir in between.
  • Add garam masala powder and pepper powder to it and mix well and continue to cook for another 3 minutes.
  • Serve hot with rice.
