Heat small skillet over low heat and roast cumin seeds until dark and fragrant. remove cumin from pan and set aside to cool. add coriander seeds to pan and slowly roast them till dark brown. do not burn spices. when coriander seeds have cooled, use clean coffee grinder to grind them with the cumin seeds and set aside.

Not a fan of the combination of cauliflower and tomato sauce. I think they're better off separately.

The cauliflower came out a bit mushy. I think I steamed it for too long.

The sauce was a bit bland for my preference. I added some extra herbs and spices to give it more flavor.

A bit too spicy for my taste, but overall a great recipe. I'll tone down the chili next time.

This steamed cauliflower in spicy tomato sauce was a delightful dish! The cauliflower retained its delightful crunch, while the spicy tomato sauce added a zesty kick.
