Indian Flavored Cauliflower

1 medium to large head fresh cauliflower
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
A piece of fresh ginger, about 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch, peeled and cut into shreds
3 cloves of garlic, peeled and finely chopped
1 fresh hot green chili, finely sliced, or 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 teaspoon garam masala
3/4 teaspoons salt
pinch of fresh ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper to taste
1/4 Cup of water

Put oil in a wok or large fry pan and set over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, put in the cumin & mustard seeds. As soon as the seeds begin to pop, put in the ginger, garlic, cauliflower, and green chiles, all at the same time. Stir and fry for 5-7 minutes or until the cauliflower is turning somewhat brown. Now add the salt, pepper, garam masala, and cayenne pepper and give the cauliflower a good couple of tosses to coat. Put in 1/4 c water and cover the wok immediately. Cook for a couple more minutes and serve. Great with a big slice of naan.
