instructions
    1

    Begin by cutting the cauliflower into florets and set aside. Finely chop the onions, ginger, garlic, and green chili.

    2

    In a pan, heat the oil over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and let them splutter for about 30 seconds.

    3

    Add the chopped onions and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until they become translucent.

    4

    Add the ginger, garlic, and green chili to the pan, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until the mixture is fragrant.

    5

    Stir in the turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and sauté for another minute.

    6

    Now, add the cauliflower florets to the pan and mix to coat them with the spices.

    7

    Pour in the water and give it a gentle stir. Cover the pan with a lid and let it steam on low heat for about 15 minutes.

    8

    After 15 minutes, check the cauliflower; it should be tender yet maintain some crunch. Adjust salt if needed.

    9

    Remove the cover and cook for another 2-3 minutes to let the excess water evaporate, stirring occasionally.

    10

    Once done, remove from heat and serve hot with roti or rice, garnished with fresh coriander if desired.
