Wash and cut cauliflower into 1 ½ to 2-inch size florets.

Once cauliflower gets soften add half of the sauce and stir.
Let it simmer for further 3 to 4 minutes or until the sauce is well absorbed. Make sure the heat is medium to low. Do not burn the sauce.

- Use Tamari sauce instead of soya sauce to make this recipe gluten-free.
- I have updated the recipe and added rice vinegar in the sauce. In the video recipe, this step is missing.
- Cook your rice before and serve the cauliflower hot right after cooking. They taste delicious when served freshly cooked.
