Cauliflower, Carrot and Green Pea Curry with Coconut Milk

A few months back cauliflower was ridiculously expensive. It cost about 8 dollars for a head here in Ontario. Of course, most shoppers weren't buying it and as a consequence the price has now come down to a reasonable level. So why not try this simple but delightful Indian curry that includes fresh cauliflower and carrots with green peas, creamy coconut milk, vibrant spices, tangy tomato and lemon juice? It makes for a colorful and satisfying side to go along with your favorite Indian dishes.
