Quick Cumin Cauliflower

This makes a great substitute to chips or potatoes for lunch and dinner. Nutrients are preserved by short cooking time and not draining the cooking water.

Ingredients
2 cups Cauliflower cut into small florets (preferably organic)
2tbsp Earth Balance
1tsp Cumin Powder
approx. 1/4 cup water
Salt to taste

Method
Place cauliflower florets in a large enough pan, so that they do not overlap. Add water. The cauliflower should not be covered with water, just covered about 1/4 of the way. Add Earth Balance, cumin and salt. Bring to a boil, mix and then then cover with lid and continue to cook on medium heat until the cauliflower is just tender (about 3-5 min). Remove the cover and allow all water to escape leaving only the melted Earth Balance. Cook another 2-3 minutes allowing the cauliflower to crisp up in the pan. (If the pan seams dry add a little extra Earth Balance.)
Serve and enjoy!
(Leftovers will keep in the fridge for about a week.)
