Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon brown mustard seeds
1 large jalapeno or hot green chile pepper, seeds removed, minced, plus 1 small jalapeno or green chile pepper, thinly sliced, for garnish
10 ounces cauliflower florets, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus leaves for garnish
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Toast cumin seeds in a small, dry skillet over medium-low heat until aromatic, about 2 minutes, shaking pan to avoid burning. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium-low heat. When oil is hot, add mustard and cumin seeds; after a few seconds seeds will pop. Immediately add chiles and sliced cauliflower; saute, stirring often to keep from burning, until just tender and golden brown around the edges, about 8 minutes. The cauliflower should be al dente, tender but with some texture, not soft.
  • Stir in chopped cilantro just before removing mixture from pan. Drizzle with lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Garnish with chile slices and cilantro leaves. The saute is best served right away.

The cauliflower was a bit bland for my taste, but the seasonings were delicious. I would add more salt and pepper next time.
