Cauliflower Lentil salad

Fall is here and so is the cold weather. I tried this Mediterranean recipe with a twist to suit the cooler weather.

Ingredients:

Lentils                     - 1 cup
Cauliflower florets  - 1 cup
Cilantro(coriander) - 1/2 cup(chopped)
Tomato                    - 1 cup (chopped)
Green chilli             - 1 (chopped)
Lime                        - 1/2 to 1 as per taste
Salt                          - as per taste
Turmeric powder     - 1/2 tsp
Ginger powder         - 1 tsp
Oil                           - 1 tsp(optional)


Cook the lentils until soft but not mushy. I pressure cooked mine for 15-20 minutes. Break the cauliflower florets into small pieces and steam cook it with salt and turmeric powder. Take a bowl and add the cooked lentils, cauliflower,chopped tomatoes, green chilli, ginger powder, salt and oil. Add the juice from the lime and mix well.
Serve warm or cold.
