Cauliflower with Cumin and Olive Oil




Ingredients:
1 cauliflower
1 chopped onion
3 garlic cloves
1/2 lemon; juiced
3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt
Crushed red peppers -optional
1/2 tea spoon or a pinch of cumin

Put the olive oil in the pan. When warm, add the onions and sautee them. Add the cauliflower pieces. Sprinkle cumin on them. (This is also good for digestion). Add everything else. Add 1/4 cup water; then lower the heat, cover the pot, and simmer gently for about 30 minutes or until the cauliflowers are tender.

Transfer the mixture to a serving plate, cool it.
After it is cooled down, cover it, and refrigerate for 1 hour. Serve chilled or at room temperature with a garnish of chopped parsley/dill. (Side dish)

Suggestion: Excellent replacement for a salad! Cook it as a side dish for your BBQ!
Serve it with plain yoghurt or next to some noodles to make it a whole meal.
