Cauliflower and onion saute
Onion comes in three different colors; yellow, white and red. They are known to cause tears in some while chopping them. This is because of the presence of a gas which is emanated when the onions are sliced. Being part of the Allium genus of plants along with garlic, chives and shallots, they help in fighting stomach cancer. Caramelized onions are used in many dishes. This is one such.
Cauliflower - 1 small
Olive oil, extra virgin - 3 tsps
