Spiced Cauliflower Stir-Fry

Among vegetables, cauliflower is one of the most sensitive to overcooking. Take it a few seconds too far and it can be vile. In this more caring treatment, with a warm spicing which echoes the flavours of southern India, the florets are cooked just to the point where they retain some crunch. They are good hot and equally palatable when allowed to cool to room temperature.
