Steps:
- Remove the base of the stem of the cauliflower with a sharp knife.
- From the top down, cut the cauliflower into 1/4 inches slices. (Some of the slices will crumble, but those still taste good, they just don't look as pretty.).
- Heat 2 Table olive oil over medium-high heat in a large nonstick frying pan.
- Add one batch of the cauliflower (in a single layer) and cook until brown on the first side. Use a spachula to flip over the cauliflower.
- Fry the cauliflower until brown on the second side, adding more olive oil if needed.
- At this time, I usually add 2-3 Table. water, turn over the cauliflower again, cover and cook for several more minutes.
- Repeat on the second side if the cauliflower is not quite tender. The cauliflower tastes best if it has gotten very brown.
- Sprinkle with salt.
- Remove the first batch, keeping warm, and doing a second and third batch (if you still have cauliflower to cook) until all of the cauliflower has been sauteed.

Steps:
- Cut cauliflower florets into quarters and let sit for at least 5 minutes to bring out their health-promoting properties.
- Heat broth in large stainless steel skillet. When broth begins to steam add cauliflower and cover. Healthy sauté for 5 minutes.
- Whisk together rest of ingredients and toss with florets. Marinate for about 5 minutes for more flavor. Allowing the cauliflower to soak up the dressing for a few moments before serving makes it even better. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro.

Tips:
- Choose the right cauliflower: For the best results, use a head of cauliflower that is fresh and firm, with tightly packed florets. Avoid any heads that have brown spots or bruises.
- Cut the cauliflower into uniform florets: This will help them cook evenly. Cut the cauliflower into 1-inch florets, and then cut each floret in half lengthwise.
- Blanch the cauliflower: Blanching the cauliflower before stir-frying helps to tenderize it and remove any bitterness. To blanch the cauliflower, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Drain the cauliflower and rinse it with cold water.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help to prevent the cauliflower from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned wok or skillet, you can season it by heating it over medium heat and adding a tablespoon of oil. Swirl the oil around the pan until it coats the entire surface. Let the oil smoke for a few seconds, and then remove it from the heat. Wipe out the pan with a paper towel, and it is ready to use.
- Stir-fry the cauliflower over high heat: High heat will help to caramelize the cauliflower and give it a slightly crispy texture. Heat a wok or skillet over high heat. Add the cauliflower florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until they are browned and tender.
- Add the sauce: Once the cauliflower is cooked, add the sauce of your choice. You can use a simple soy sauce-based sauce, or you can get more creative with your flavors. Some popular Asian-inspired sauces include oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and sweet and sour sauce.
- Serve the cauliflower immediately: Stir-fried cauliflower is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy. You can serve it as a main course or a side dish.
