Cauliflower Stir Fry

     I should that was a very lazy day. I started my lunch early morning at 6.30 to pack for my husband. Somehow managed to prepare a curry for my lunch but i didnt felt of cooking sidedish, at the same time, my husband's lunch intake will get reduced if he doesn't have any sidedish. Finally decide to do a simple stir fry which should be really spicy since my main curry was little bit bland. Surfed my fridge and finally got 6 cauliflower florets which is very much enough for my husband. With that 6 florets and with very basic ingredients, prepared this lazy stir fry. You wont believe me, the taste was super amazing. I was literally licking the leftovers, after i packed into the lunch box.

Cauliflower	6 Florets
Chopped Onion	1/2 no.

     Wash the florets in hot water and strain it. Heat a spoon of oil in a pan, add mustard, once splutters, add cumin seeds, chopped onion, saute it by adding pinch of salt. Once done, add all powders, do sauting for 2 mins. Now add 1/2 cup of water and required salt. Let it cook until raw smell goes off. Now add the florets, mix well with the masalas. Lid on.
