Categories     Cauliflower

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 head cauliflower, about 1-1/4 pounds
2 bunches scallions or 2 small green onions
2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1 teaspoon fennel seed
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
salt
1/3 cup warm water
1/4 cup light vegetable oil
1/3 cup chopped fresh coriander (optional)

Steps:

  • Separate and cut the cauliflower into 1-inch florets. Set aside.
  • Trim the scallions and chop them,including the entire green part. Set aside.
  • Measure out the spices and place them,as well as the water, right next to the stove.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or sauté pan over high heat. When the oil is hot, add the mustard, cumin, and fennel. Keep a pot lid handy since the seeds may splatter and splutter when added. When the seeds stop sputtering, add the turmeric and immediately add the cauliflower.
  • Stir-fry the cauliflower until its evenly coated with spice-infused oil. Add the scallions, salt, and water; mix and cover with a lid. Cook over medium heat and toss a couple times until the cauliflower is soft, about 10 minutes. Uncover, fold in the coriander and continue stir-frying until excess moisture evaporates and the cauliflower looks glazed, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and serve.
