Spiced cauliflower with chickpeas

This Moroccan inspired spiced cauliflower with chickpeas  is fantastically delicious dish, which can be served with couscous or rice as a vegan meal, or as side dish with grilled lamb/chicken.  You can make it with ripe tomatoes or with tinned ones –  I used tinned cherry tomatoes, which worked really well.
