Back when I roasted cauliflower with
curry, I thought that Indian raita, a minty cucumber yogurt sauce, would have been a nice accompaniment.
Raita is made by wrapping 1 seeded, grated cucumber in cheesecloth and squeezing out all the moisture. In a bowl, whisk together 1c. whole milk yogurt, 1/2 tsp. cumin, a pinch of cayenne. Add the cucumber, as well as 2-3 Tbsp. finely grated carrots, and 1 Tbsp finely chopped cilantro or mint.
Raita is very similar to Greek tzatziki which is yogurt, cucumber, lemon juice, and a lot of minced garlic. I have to say that even though the raita sounds like it matches better with a roasted curried cauliflower, I'd rather have the garlicky tzatziki.

Stuffed grape leaves are a typical Mediterranean and Middle Eastern food. Depending on which cultural cuisine, they
are called by slightly different names: "dolma" in Turkey, "dolmade" in Greece, and
"dolme" in Iran. The grape leaves are filled with anything from rice, different types of nuts, and meat,
usually lamb.
