This is beautiful, delicious, tasty, healthy and easy.<br/>The spice composition makes this recipe really special. It's not much more work than the usual boiled cauliflower and presents very well.<br/>I like the cardamom note in it!<br/>Thanks a lot for this recipe! -
What a nice change from the plain boiled cauliflower! Its also low cal and very tasty! Halfed the coriander was my only change due to personnal taste. A 5 star recipe that will be a common side dish from now on. Thanks Ev, for another keeper! -

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
