Indian Cauliflower with Chick Peas and Carmelized Tofu

There are three parts to this recipe - Baking Cauliflower, Carmelizing Tofu and the Dressing - in that order. So everything on the list under the Cauliflower up to the Chick peas relates to the baking of the cauliflower. Chick peas are cooked on their own and then from the ingredient Tofu to the next heading Curry powder which starts the Dressing portion. There are detailed instructions for making a Madras Curry powder from scratch but it is perfectly fine to substitute with pre-made curry blends available everywhere. I also substituted regular tofu with smoked tofu because I am hooked on it as an ingredient - and I add a little starch to the tofu before frying because I like it crispier, but all this is optional.

Give a quick stir and add tofu and let brown, turning occasionally until most sides are golden, about 8-10 minutes. Sprinkle with a generous pinch brown sugar, and cook for one more minute. Set aside.Combine:Strain cooked the chickpeas and place in a large bowl. Add the roasted cauliflower, caramelized tofu, olive oil, vinegar and the rest of the spices and herbs. Taste for salt and pepper. I usually add a little more kosher salt.
