Spiced cauliflower with chickpeas, herbs & pine nuts

The Karoo Heartland may be famous for its Karoo lamb, but there are more and more travellers with dietary requests. Vegetarians and vegans who don’t eat meat, gluten intolerant travellers as well as other allergies.
 
Having recently had a spate of vegetarian and vegan guests staying over at Angler and Antelope Guesthouse in Somerset East, Annabelle Hobson has been scouring the internet and playing around with new recipes. This spiced cauliflower dish was an absolute hit!
 
*Spiced cauliflower with chickpeas, herbs & pine nuts*
 
Ingredients:
1 large head cauliflower, broken into florets (about 1kg total)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
