Cauliflower Masala

Cauliflower - 1
Onion - 1 big
Tomato - 1
Garlic - 2 cloves
Oil - 4Tsp
Garam masala - 1/4tsp
Coriander powder - 1tsp
Turmeric - 1tsp
Curry leaves - 1 stem
Coriander leaves - few stems
Red chilly - 4 Nos

Cut cauliflower wash well and sink it in a bowl of water mixed with turmeric powder for 30 minutes. Heat oil in a large pan. Sputter few mustard seeds, add onion and saute well. Mix garlic, curry leaves, coriander powder and garam masala in the pan. When the masala is fried, add chopped tomato and salt, mix well and cover the pan for 2 minutes on medium heat. Meanwhile, drain the water from Cauliflower and microwave it for 2 minutes. Now add this semi cooked flower to the masala and mix well. Keep the lid closed for 2 minute on medium heat. Mix again and keep few more minutes until cooked to your taste. Don't forget to mix with coriander leaves towards the end. Better not over cook the flower (I like to hear the 'KaruMura' sound when I chew the flower!). I like this with steamed rise, laban and little ginger pickle. That will make your 1/2Hr dinner!
