Ingredients

  • 16 oz cauliflower florets (thawed)
  • 1 cup tomato puree
  • 2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 6 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
  • 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne (use more or less if you want to change the amount of heat)
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • 2 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • ½ cup scallions (chopped, or 2 tablespoon cilantro, also chopped)
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a skillet

  • Add the ginger and garlic and saute for a few seconds until the garlic is fragrant.
