How to make Indian Style Cauliflower Roast
- Cut the cauliflower into small florets.
- Boil 2 cups of water in a vessel. Once it started boiling, add turmeric powder and a pinch of salt it. Add the cauliflower florets and switch off the flame. Leave it for 3 – 5 minutes. Cauliflower should not be fully cooked.
- Add Oil in a pan. Add the par boiled cauliflower to oil and mix well. cauliflower florets should be coated well with oil. Keep the flame medium low.
- Now add Red chilli powder, coriander powder, garam masala, roasted cumin powder and salt. Mix well. Cover and cook for 8 - 10 mins. Saute in between.
- Roast in low flame for 15 - 20 mins. Don't forget to saute in between.
- Roasting cauliflower requires patience. But the result will be great. I used well seasoned Cast iron pan for roasting the potatoes. It was very easy and cauliflower did not stick to the pan.
- Once the cauliflower is nicely roasted, switch off the flame . Serve hot with curd rice or rasam or sambar.
Notes

- Do not Over cook the cauliflower, else it will mushy while roasting.
