Cauliflower and Potato dish in Bengali Style (Chaal Kopi)

I am very foodie. So I tried to make different kind of dishes with different-different type of materials. I love to cook so I do experiments. But this is not my own experiment ,but ya this is bengali vegetarian dish. My today's post is about Cauliflower and Potato dish, Ya I know its very common dish but there is a twist in this recipe. Can you guess it ,what is the twist? hmmm?The answer is- Here with cauliflower and potato I mixed rice also. That's right rice and this is not any kind of pilaf ,so here I added very little quantity of rice. This is only Vegetarian dish or we called in hindi is Sabji,so you can eat it with both chapati and rice.This is bengali dish ,which called in bengal as a Chaal Kopi, and here Chaal means rice and Kopi is cauliflower, which we can eat with rice and chapati also. It was again in one weekend I tried to make this dish because my hubby was at home and he generally loves to eat simple food, in hindi that we call Dal Chawal and Sabji. On that weekend I prepared only rice, masoor dal and the great Chaal Kopi and that was my menu for lunch .You would be thinking only that was for lunch, but believe me this one was the great and simple meal for us that nothing else we needed. So do you want to try this out? Then note the recipe.
