Preparation

MAKE THE BEANS

Rinse a can of chickpeas and place it in a small saucepan. Add water to cover and add the salt. Cook over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until the chickpeas are tender and still retain their shape. Let them cool off to room temperature in their liquid.

In a medium bowl combine the yogurt, sour cream, coriander, cumin, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

In a small bowl, whisk the lemon juice and the honey. Add the raisins and let them soak for 15 minutes. Remove the raisins with a slotted spoon and reserve. To the remaining liquid, add the curry powder and ½ teaspoon salt. Whisking constantly, add the olive oil in a small steady stream.

Position a rack in the center of the oven, and heat the oven to 425F. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the cauliflower florets with the olive oil, ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Roast stirring once, until golden-brown and tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Transfer the cauliflower and any browned bits on the pan to a large bowl. Drain the chickpeas, then transfer to the bowl with the cauliflower. Add the dressing and toss to combine.

I used canned chickpeas however, you can use dried and soak them for  6 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. Uncovered bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until the beans are tender, around 2 hours. Proceed with the recipe for all the other steps.

A rich, healthy, and delicious dish that will work well by itself, or alongside fish, chicken, or lamb. The yogurt binds every flavor as well as enhances them giving the vegetables a great flavor
