Leela's Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes & Cooking Hints

This is Leela's Vegan and Vegetarian Recipes and Cooking Hints. My cooking style is improvisational. I don't measure much, but go on instinct. I take inspiration and improvise to make up recipes. I'll add various menus, recipes and cooking hints. As I refine items, I'll modify recipes. I'll also point out other delicious recipes I've tried.

  2. Wash and dry thoroughly Cauliflower
  3. Add to a large bowl or directly onto roasting pan
  4. Toss with EVOO, until completely coated
  5. Sprinkle Garam Masala and Turmeric as evenly across whole pan as possible. 
  6. Toss thoroughly until all cauliflower is coated
  7. Spread on roasting pan so its only one layer deep
