My water and lemon came to 3/4 of a cup, in which I added 1/4 cup paste to blend in. I did saute the onions and cauliflower together, never removing the cauliflower, added the water paste mixture and cooked till tender in a covered pot. 1 onion was perfect, I did half then slice into half moons. Using 2 teaspoons dried parsley. I did skip the salt no need with the olives. Did add garlic! Simmered with a lid on for 30 minutes till perfect crunch and tenderness. Thanks for the healthy yummy goodness.
