2 tablespoons oil
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon cayene

salt to taste

1) Heat the oil in a large heavy saucepan, and saute the onion and garlic, if using, for 5 minutes until softened and lightly colored.

2) Add the spices and cook for a further 1 - 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the tomoatoes to the saucepan, increase the heat slightly, and cook for a further 10 minutes, breaking up the tomatoes with a wooden spoon as they cook.

3) Add the cauliflower to the pan with salt to taste and stir well to coat in the tomato mixture. Cover and cook for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to keep the flowerets evenly coated in the sauce. (Do not overcook the cauliflower or it will become soft and disintegrate.)

This is a tried and true favorite in our household. We've been eating it for almost a dozen years! DH cooks it for me especially, but the kids and DH slurp it up too.
