Was at Pathmark in the snow storm, for some reason bought cauliflower. Now usually I would just toss the sucker in olive oil, s and p, maybe some red pepper flakes and throw it in the oven to roast. I've also been meaning to make a cauliflower mash, but for some reason I was thinking Indian. So I bought some cumin seeds at Target today and got a little wild. Hehe.
Sautee'd Spiced Cauliflower
Recipe adapted from Jeyshri's Kitchen
Ingredients:
- 1 head of cauliflower- chopped into small florets
- 1 large yellow onion- chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic- minced
- 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp cumin seeds- chopped
- salt to taste- maybe start with 1/4 tsp and go from there
- 1/2 tsp tumeric powder
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp garam masala powder
- 1/2 tsp ground corriander
- 1 T oil- olive or sesame
Method:
Over medium heat cook the chopped onion in the oil until it is translucent. I kept the lid on for a bit to really get it to cook. While that's cooking, mince your garlic and set aside. Wash the cauliflower and chop it up, add to the onion and pour in a couple of T of water to get it cooking with the lid on. Chop up the cumin seed. After the cauli has been cooking for a few minutes over medium to med-high, add the seeds and all the other spices. Add the garlic as well. Add 2 more T of water and stir everything around. Now just cover and let it cook, stir every few minutes until the cauli is soft and cooked through.
