• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
• Salt & black pepper (to taste)
• Optional: paprika, chili flakes, parsley, or a squeeze of lemon

Instructions

1. Cook cauliflower
   Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
   Add cauliflower, season lightly, and cook 5–7 minutes until tender and lightly golden.
2. Add mushrooms
   Stir in mushrooms and cook 4–5 minutes until they release moisture and brown.
3. Garlic time
   Add garlic and optional spices. Cook 30–60 seconds until fragrant (don’t burn).
4. Finish
   Taste and adjust seasoning.
   Sprinkle parsley or add lemon juice if using.

Serving Ideas

• Serve over rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice
• Pair with grilled chicken or fish
• Add a fried or poached egg on top

Tips

• Don’t overcrowd the pan—this helps browning.
• Use high heat at the end for extra caramelization.
• Butter adds richness; olive oil keeps it lighter.
