White Cauliflower Curry / Fulkopir Roast (Kolkata Style)

Star Rating WIDGET PACK

I have seen two types of cauliflower's roast curry from childhood, my mom makes the yellow + spicy version and the other one is white + sweet version. Both of them are my favourite but today I am sharing the recipe of second version because I have already shared a similar as 1st one cauliflower curry in my earlier post. So, in Bengal this cauliflower white curry becomes very popular during festivals and goes best with pulao or plain roti. Few pure Bengali restaurants serve this dish during puja. The recipe is quite similar with them except some changes like they make this curry with pure 'ghee' but I made it with oil + little ghee etc. The taste came out phenomenal and 'he' finished half of the curry in one sitting. Try this in your kitchen and enjoy with your loved ones.
