Lamb With Cauliflower image

A very good Indian recipe based on one from Linda Fraser's, The Book of Curries & Indian Foods. I serve this with cooked basmati rice. NOTE: I included the recipe for HOT SPICE MIX because I didn't know the equivalent name for it; please do not add all of it to this dish! It only calls for 2 tablespoons.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This dish was a disaster! The lamb was overcooked and the cauliflower was mushy. I will never make this recipe again.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I had to add some extra spices to make it more flavorful.

I made this dish exactly as the recipe said, but my lamb was a little tough. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
