Great recipe! Son and husband loved it. Crunchy, juicy, creamy textures with roasted spices are really delicious. Easy to make too.
Chickpeas are not a favourite in our house, what is the substitute?
Hi Roy, as chickpeas are a prominent ingredient in this recipe we recommend searching for another recipe that uses a different pulse variety on our site:

I am really not a cauliflower fan but I try to eat it sometimes because it is good for me. This recipe wasn’t bad, definite improvement over other cauliflower recipes. I like the choice of spices in it
