Method:
- Cut cauliflower florets into bite size pieces and boil it in water with salt and turmeric powder until soft but still firm enough.Drain it and keep aside.Heat oil in a kadai - add the ingredients listed under 'to temper' let it splutter.Then add onion and ginger garlic paste, saute till slightly browned.
- Then add tomato puree along with red chilli,coriander and garam masala powders and salt.Allow it to boil well till raw smell of tomatoes leave.Then add parboiled cauliflower.
- Mix well with the gravy.Keeping in low flame sprinkle little water less than 1/4 cup and cook covered for 5 minutes in low flame.Turn over in between to avoid burning. After few mins the water must have dried up. Mix once, Garnish with coriander leaves and switch off.
My Notes:
- You can add tomatoes while frying onions instead of the puree.
- Garam masala powder is purely optional, but I like the flavour so added it :)
