Add this recipe to your mid week menu, and serve with piping hot rice

Winter is the ideal time to try recipes that are old and new. While this is the season to relish chicken and turkey roasts and beef steaks, it is also the perfect time to savour vegetarian delights. One of the most popular winter vegetables is cauliflower. Recipes like Aloo-Phoolkopir Dalna or Phoolkopi Roast are a staple in Bengali and Indian households. Another traditional recipe is Spicy Fulkopir Data Bata (Cauliflower Shoot Paste). This recipe helps you make the maximum use of the shoots of cauliflower. All you need, apart from the main ingredients, are a few pantry staples like green chillies, garlic, and kalonji, along with a few other items. The recipe has been shared in detail by the Instagram account @thekhaiikhaiigirl. Follow the steps and make the dish already!
