I enjoy stocking up on fresh peas and cauliflower that are widely available during this season. Fresh peas are always so much better in taste than the frozen ones, though separating the peas from their pods do take some time. So I end up making a variety of cauliflower and peas dishes. This gobi matar is one such side dish recipe that I ended up making a few days back for dinner.
This sabzi is a very simple and easy to make with the combination of cauliflower and peas absolutely delicious. Both peas and cauliflower are nutritious vegetables. Green peas are a great source of vitamin C and dietary fiber. Cauliflower too is a great source of both vitamin C and dietary fiber.
