Aka Tete's cauliflower dish with cilantro, garlic, and lemon.
I love this dish. My mother in law makes it for me anytime we stay with her because her own kids don't care for it. ..but I just can't get enough.
Take a head of cauliflower and cut into crude chunks.
Heat pan with oil (I used olive oil, but Tete said regular oil, or fancy flavored olive oils work well too) add enough water for steaming. (1/4 cup ish)
Sauté cauliflower in pan on a low heat for around 15min or until it is soft enough to split with a fork and water has evaporated. During this time add some salt, pepper, and red pepper.
Add between. .2 and 5 cloves of minced garlic (pending your love of garlic) and a fair amount of chopped cilantro (maybe around 2 or 3 handfuls) ..keep cooking on slow for not longer than 2 min...you don't want to cook the garlic, just get everything mixed in.
Serve with a lemon.
If you enjoy lemon the way we do in this family than know you may go through two lemons for one head of cauliflower!
With Meat: first cook ground beef in oil with red pepper, salt, then resume recipe from the top.
Baby loves this dish.
Enjoy! Would love to know of any variations of this dish too.
Just tried the cauliflower recipe. Very tasty. I agree with the extra lemon if you love lemon as I do too. It went very well with the black bean burger patties I made as I was wondering how to use up the leftover bunch of cilantro.
