Cauliflower Poriyal May 24, 2007

 Here is a simple recipe I got from a bachelor friend. He never knew what he was making but it turned out quite nice.
And i hate soggy cauliflower.I had vowed never to buy cauliflower again after my first attempt at cauliflower curry.
But this one changed my mind.
Simple,easy,and pretty tasty too.

Ingredients :
1 medium cauliflower
3-4 tbsp sunflower oil
salt to taste
a pinch of turmeric
2 tsp chilli powder/sambar powder/garam masala powder.
mustard to season.

Method:
1.Pluck the cauliflower florets.Wash them well.Keep aside.
2.Heat the kadai,add 3-4 tbsp oil .Add mustard seeds.
3.Once mustard seeds crackle,add the cauliflower florets and saute well.Add salt to taste ,a little turmeric,2 tbsp or sambar/chilli powder or any garam masala powder as you like it.
3.Saute at intervals.Close it and keep it for a while till the florets get cooked.Can sprinkle a little water once in a while if you feel its sticking to the kadai.But dont pour too much water.
4.Once cooked,can garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with rice or chapathis.
