and place lid on leave fora few mins then add some water

halve way through add veg  in the meantime prepare the rishta , this can be steamed the same way as cous cous







it`s just cauliflower with a bachemal sauce and cheese of your choice , i can only really get cheddar here , their are other but i`m not a cheese person so i don`t bother

and if my dh was here i would put some garlic in the bachemal as that is the only way my dh will eat cauliflower

    Umm Salam, it is the same method as making spaghetti. I made it with a Libyan sister once - just flour and water and thn it goes through the pasta machine until it's nice and thin and we dried it on the backs of chairs, lol!
