Lehsuni Gobi - Garlicky cauliflower

Lehsuni gobi is one of those recipes that I've always loved making and having when I want something close to my heart.

Ingredients:
One whole cauliflower
4 or 5 cloves of garlic - crushed
.5 tbsp cumin
.5 tbsp coriander
1 tsp cloves
1 tsp cardamom
1 stick of cinnamon
.5 tbsp black peppercorns
3 or 4 bay leaves
1 tbsp oil

Method:
In a mortar and pestle pound the cardamom, cumin, coriander, black peppercorns, and cloves to powder. Set aside in a bowl along with the cinnamon stick and bay leaves. Cut cauliflower into small to medium size pieces. Heat oil in a large frying pan. Add the spices and the herb into the pan once it's hot.  While the spices are frying - keep the heat to medium so the spices don't burn. Add the cauliflower to the pan once you start to smell the spices. Stir fry for 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of water to the pan and cover with lid. Let the cauliflower cook in steam for 5 to 8 minutes.
Best served with roti or rice.
