This Cauliflower Pepper Fry(Gobi Pepper Fry ) is my go-to when i want something quick, punchy and crowd-pleasing. a homemade chettinad-style masala lifts simple cauliflower into a fragrant snack or side that pairs beautifully with rasam or sambar rice. the masala is easy to roast and grind ahead of time, so on busy days you can have this on the table in under 30 minutes. the cauliflower stays slightly crunchy and carries the peppery heat well — serve it hot and let the aroma do the rest. try it once and you’ll have a new favorite for weeknights and small get-togethers.
