The first whiff of garam masala, for example, might transport you back to a wonderful meal that you had at your favorite Indian restaurant last weekend. Curry powder, on the other hand, despite bearing the word "curry" in its title - which is what you ordered at the Indian restaurant, right? - is unlikely to awaken such a connection. Its aroma might, however, remind you of dishes coming from countries like Jamaica, Thailand, and Japan.

These Garam Masala Fall Harvest Bowls celebrate the bold flavors and seasonal abundance of fall. Roasted cauliflower, creamy Japanese eggplant, and hearty chickpeas form the base of this nourishing dish, all warmly spiced with garam masala and caramelized to perfection in a hot oven. A simple lemony yogurt sauce adds brightness and tang, while a handful of juicy pomegranate seeds brings bursts of sweetness and color to every bite.
