Hello and welcome back to my Channel today I am making a beautifully delicious roast cauliflower chickpea um dish um it is wholesome it is so delicious you guys will make it on repeat I promise but before I start I just want to say uh please don’t forget

To subscribe and hit the Bell button so you get a notification every time I share a new recipe which is a lot of times so so I am going to get started with the chickpeas first so the first thing is yes you can use tin chickpeas but because I remembered that I’m going

To do the chickpea dish I soaked it overnight so 300 G of dry chickpea soaked in 1 liter of water overnight is what we’re going to start With so the 300 G chickpeas soaked overnight in 1 ler of water and this is what it’s looking like right now and this isn’t even cooked so oh that’s a bad one um so that is um looking good I am uh just going to get this on the hob I’m

Going to add 100 ml water more to this because um it has absorbed quite a lot so just going to add not much actually 200 mL more of water and get it on the hob and bring it to a boil so I am going to add 1 teaspoon of

Salt half a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and then bring it to a boil and let it cook until the chickpeas are nice and soft so guys it has been 20 minutes I’m just checking on the chickpeas there’s still enough water in there because I don’t

Want to dry them I I don’t want the chickpeas to dry out so and it’s half done so that was 20 minutes I I guess it’ll take another 101 15 so I’m just going to keep an eye that the there’s enough water in there and in the meantime I’m going to prepare the

Cauliflower um now you might ask me that uh what is so special about this it is healthy so healthy um and it is delicious obviously most important it’s gluten-free it taks all the boxes so uh yeah it’s absolutely fantastic this is the best vegetarian dish you’ll make

This week so definitely you’ll have to try it so here is my whole cauliflower and usually I love to use the leaves but they look very sad indeed so I’m going to they don’t look nice at all so I’m just going to not use the leaves today um and just concentrate on

The um cauliflower itself so um all we need to do is chop up the florids so if you start with one only the first one is difficult to take out and if you just follow the grain that will be no problem at all and then I will definitely use this cuz

Um I love eating this so just chop it into smaller little pieces because they take a bit longer to cook I’m going to turn my oven on at 1 um 60 fan or 180 normal make sure that the florids are the same size so that they cook in the same amount of time

And now I’m just going to make a mixture for the cauliflower half a teaspoon turmeric half a teaspoon salt teaspoon of chili teaspoon cumin seeds teaspoon of chat Masala now you can uh easily make this at home I’ve shared a recipe for this you can find it

On the channel I’ll leave the link in the description and next Oil of your choice I’m using ground nut oil today so 2 to 3 tbsp of oil and a good mix add in the cauliflower also I’d like to add um some garlic so I found this massive one join

Piece of garlic so basically you want use two to three garlic cloves where is that yeah that’s the one and I’m just going to grate it into the cauliflower itself and I’m not done yet the last thing to go with the cauliflower is a um sweet potato that’s the name almost

Forgot so just going to peel and chop it into small pieces so they take the same amount of time to cook as our cauliflower little Cube sizes that’s what we’re looking for good mix got the oven heated just going to mix it by hand because that is really the only way to do

It goes on a tray gorgeous and I’m going to keep an eye on this but it should take around 25 minutes or so I’m going to check it after 15 and see if it needs turning over so it’s it’s been exactly 30 minutes uh and that is definitely done

Um so what I’m going to do is there’s not too much water left in it anyways but I’m just going to quickly drain that little bit of water out I’m uh using the same Bowl I used for the cauliflower I haven’t washed it and I’m just going to put the drained chickpeas in

There um put a little bit of oil a tablespoon this doesn’t need too much I’m using the same um peanut oil as before uh once again a teaspoon of chat Masala half a teaspoon of salt and a little bit of uh chili oil of your choice you can also put some

Chili uh powder if you like which actually I will add a pinch of see the smells incredible so this is going to go into the same oven as the cauliflower make sure that it’s in a flat line um at 160 or 180 160 fan uh for 25

Minutes ah the winter sun in the kitchen is so different to Summer light it’s just beautiful right it has been half an hour and both the chickp and the cauliflower is ready oh look at that and then we have the chickp as well so now to finish uh I’m just going to

Get um a little bit of fresh mint just the leaves and coriander leaves but with the stalks and I’m just going to um finally chop this up just giving it a quick wash um I have got here 200 g of natural yogurt to this I’m going to add a little bit of chili

Powder good pinge basically a bit of salt and same amount of cumin powder ground cumin and then all the coriander and mint that’s our cauliflower it’s I’ve had 5 minutes it’s still warm then that’s the chickpeas mix it together oh that’s warm it’s hot hot hot hot For so there really is no uh right or wrong way of eating it you can absolutely just serve it as it is um and this is a whole meal in itself to be honest if you want you can serve it like myself with some chapati so you scoop it out like a subg

It’s really so good so healthy beautiful and absolutely delicious or just use it as it is the seasoning is spot on the spices are perfect it’s got a bit of heat it’s got so many herbs it just is so fresh um oh so good and some of the chickpeas the

Outside is a slightly bit crunchy um whatever is left I’m going to put them in the wraps give them to kids for tomorrow’s lunch but today I’m going to have this as it is hope you will try this don’t forget to subscribe and I’ll see you back with

Another new recipe very soon bye for now even the Sun’s shining on the dish

  1. This has all my favourite foods in it and I’ll be making it tonight. I’ll cook the dried chickpeas in my instapot to get them cooked!

  2. Have you ever tried Raita with roasted cumin and chaat masala mint coriander and vegetables before and chilli also that would be a great variant of Raita i do really want to see some basics of how to make Rita and what spices to use

  3. Looks fab, Chetna! As always! And next—- CAKE! It's -20 C here with two feet of snow, so time for cake! Already viewed your chai drinks. Waiting to get some saffron. You can pick what type of cake/dessert is best for January!

  4. I was wondering what to do with that head of cauliflower in the fridge. I know what to make tomorrow! I just have to remember to soak the chickpeas tonight!

  5. Chetna can you try Muthiya and Undhiyu from Gujarati cuisine have you ever tried purple yam before I heard it's used in South American as well parts of India i really want to see such recipes on the channel Muthiya are traditional sweet potato like pancakes

  6. I love when Chetna is so overcome with how delicious things are that she can hardly speak! 😃I can't wait to try this one!🙏

  7. Hi Chetna that looks healthy and delicious meal 😋 i will definitely give that a try, I am not a huge fan of sweets potatoes, can i use normal potatoes please, thank you so much for sharing this delicious idea 😁❤

  8. AN STOVE COOK OF THE ALLOW BETTER TO HEALTH REASON SAME FOOD PUT NEED FOR HEALTH. A SALT BECOME FRIST SPICE TO SAUCE OF THE ONION TO AWAY FROM ALGERGY START YOUR FOOD SPICE IF COLOR BROWN WHITE YELLOW TOMATO RED GRAM MASLA COOK BETWEEN EACH ADD TO YOUR LIKE AMOUNT.

  9. Chetna, I’ve passed this on to my mother in law as my husband won’t touch cauliflower. 2 questions – do you not wash the cauliflower after cutting it into florets (or did that happen off camera?) And could I substitute garam masala for chaat masala? This recipe looks amazing. Happy New Year!

  10. I made this today and it was delicious! thanks so much for all your amazing recipes 🙂 I also made (with the leftover cauliflower) you cauliflower and onion cashew currry with cumin rice, and the perfect saffron chai – my friends really enjoyed it! I also have all the books and tomorrow I'll make the zucchini Chana Dal 😉

  11. Just gone in the oven now. No sweet potato, so used half parboiled spud chunks and half cubed parsnip. Fingers crossed!

  12. Made the recipe today. Great taste! Only my chickpeas were a little undercooked. Soaked them for 24 hours, cooked them for 25 minutes. I guess because I did not add the baking powder. Will give it another try soon. Thanks Chetna🤗🙏🏻

  13. If you're using tinned chickpeas, do you cook them before they go in the oven or do you just spice them and roast 'em?

    Also, if your don't have chaat masala (or all the ingredients for it) would garam masala be a good alternative?

  14. This looks wonderful – definitely added to my meal plan for next week!
    By the way, anyone, if you have a cauliflower that came with wilted leaves, then trim a little 2cm piece off the bottom of the stem, take out the white curds part and put the bowl shaped greens in a bowl of cold water overnight. It will drink all the water and plump up those leaves for you.
    Then you can wash the leaves, slice finely and cook like any greens. They cook more quickly than spring greens or kale. They are really healthy and add to your intake of green veg, they taste faintly of cauliflower and are delicious!
    Saves a lot of waste and is good fibre to help with your own body’s waste 😂😂😂
    I’ve been doing it for years and it’s always successful ❤
