Ingredients
- 1 medium cauliflower head washed and separated in medium sized florets
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 potato cut into small pieces
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 allspice berries
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 3 clove buds
- Salt/Pepper
Instructions
- In a large pot, or deep pan heat the olive oil, add the cauliflower, potatoes, and spices, pepper and sauté, browning the cauliflower a bit.
- Add the tomato paste and 1 teaspoon salt, swirl it around heating it as well.
- Add some hot water until cauliflower is about half way covered (you can always add more later if needed). Stir gently.
- Lower heat, assemble cauliflower so that that stems face down. Cover pot and let it simmer for about 30-50 minutes (check that the cauliflower is very soft, but not falling apart, also the sauce should not be watery).
- Serve warm or at room temperature, spoon some sauce on top and some feta cheese.
