Paturi is a traditional Bengali recipe where generally the fish is coated in mustard paste and then steamed. It is cooked, wrapped in a banana leaf. But today I would like to share my version of a paturi style recipe with my favorite veggie - Cauliflower.
It is a very simple, easy and an equally yummy dish. As banana leaf was not available, I cooked the cauliflower, mixed with all the mentioned ingredients in a dum style. It is absolutely a fuss-free recipe. This side dish can be relished with plain steamed rice, pulao or chapattis. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
- 1 medium size cauliflower, cut into florets
- salt to taste
- 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
- 1/2 tsp. nigella seeds (kalonji)
- 2 tbsp. fresh grated coconut
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3-4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1" ginger, chopped
- 2 green chilies, chopped
- 1/2 tsp. cumin powder
- 1-2 tbsp. + 1 tsp. mustard oil
- 1-2 tbsp. kasundi / mustard sauce
- handful of coriander leaves, chopped (leave some to garnish)
In a pan, mix together all the above mentioned ingredients. Cover and cook on a medium flame till it is done. Sprinkle some water at intervals.
When the veggies are soft, switch off the flame. Add the remaining coriander leaves and mustard oil. Serve as a side dish with either rice or chapattis.
