Ingredients
- ¾ cup cauliflower florets
- 1 small sized big onion finely chopped
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
- salt to taste
- To temper
- 2 teaspoon oil
- ½ teaspoon mustard seeds
- 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
- a small sprig curry leaves
To roast and grind
- ¼ inch piece cinnamon
- 2 cloves
- ¾ teaspoon pepper corns
- ½ teaspoon jeera
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
- 2 red chilies broken
Instructions
- Dry roast the ingredients listed under 'to roast & grind' till nice aroma rises. Cool down and grind it to a slightly coarse powder - I used my hand mortar and pestle to do this .Cut cauliflower into small florets soak it in slightly warm water for few mins, drain water and boil cauliflower along with turmeric powder and salt until it becomes soft.
- Drain water and add half of the roast & ground powder to cooked cauliflower and marinate it for 15 minutes.Heat oil in a pan - add the items listed under 'to temper' let it splutter then add garlic, onion and fry till it turns golden brown.
- Then add marinated cauliflower and sauté for 2 minutes. Add remaining spice powder and sauté for few mins until the cauliflower is nicely coated with the masala. Switch off.
- Serve with hot rice and sambar or any kuzhambu of your choice.
Notes
- It is a must to cut the florets a bit small only then the masalas get blended well with the veggie.
- This is little spicy, so adjust red chilies according to your spice level.
- You can even grind the spice powder in bulk and use it whenever you want but freshly ground spices always gives great flavor.
- Usually for other veggies, if I am cooking them separate I reserve the cooked water and add it while making the curry.
- But for cauliflower, I drain them to get rid of worms and even the pesticides as cauliflower has those high risks.
