Cauliflower Stir Fry With Prawns

       
           A simple and a yummy side dish to be had with chapattis. This curry can be stuffed in parathas and made into a frankie roll. It also serves as a side dish with dal-chawal, sambar-rice or curd-rice. For a veg. version, prawns can be substituted with some soya bean chunks.

     

• 1 med, size cauliflower, cut into small florettes
• 2 tbsp. oil
• 1/2 tsp. mustard seeds
• 1 tsp. urad dal (split black gram)
• 1/2 cup prawns, cleaned and deveined
• 2 onions, chopped
• 3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 green chilies, slit
• few curry leaves
• salt to taste
• 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
• coriander leaves to garnish

          Heat oil in a pan and temper with mustard seeds. After it stops spluttering, add the urad dal and saute till it changes colour. Then add the prawns and fry for a few seconds.

          Now add the cauliflower, onion, garlic, green chilies, curry leaves, salt and turmeric powder and cook, covered on a low flame. Sprinkle water at intervals and stir. Cook till the cauliflower is soft. Serve, garnished with coriander leaves.
