Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
For the Sauce:
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 clove garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium high heat, add the water, salt, and cauliflower. Saute until the water has evaporated, or the cauliflower has cooked through to your liking.
- Remove the cauliflower florets from the pan and onto paper towel lined plate. Really layer the paper towel so that it will absorb more moisture. (If there is still water left in the pan, discard it and wipe the pan clean.)
- Whisk together all of the sauce ingredients with the exception of the green onions.
- Add the sauce to the skillet and stir constantly. The sauce will bubble and thicken. Keep stirring to avoid burning. The sauce needs to be really thick - not syrupy thick, but thick like molasses.
- Once the sauce has really thickened, add the cauliflower back to the skillet and toss to coat. The moisture from the cauliflower will thin out the sauce to a syrupy consistency. This is normal.
- Turn off heat. Add the green onions and toss together.
- Serve immediately.
