How to make Cauliflower Masala Curry

  • Grind the spices listed under spice powder to a coarse paste without adding water. Keep it aside.
  • Wash the cauliflower in running water and soak in hot water with salt for about 5 to 10 mins.
  • Heat a pan with oil, add bay leaf, and finely chopped onions. Saute till the onions turn slightly brown.
  • Add the spice paste and combine everything well. When the onions are browned, add the tomato puree. Let it get cooked on the high flame for 1 min.
  • Now add salt, chili powder, coriander powder, and turmeric powder. Add 1/4 cup water if required and let the masala cook on low flame for 5 mins.
  • Drain the cauliflower from water and add to the pan. Cook on high flame for the cauliflowers to get well coated with the masala.
  • Add water as required and cook on low flame till you get a good gravy.
  • This gravy is mostly cooked with just enough water when served with Pulao.
