Part		 Quick to make and surprisingly delicious, this dish will satisfy both beef and vegetable enthusiasts. Cauliflower was developed in 15th century Europe but is now grown worldwide. In Asia it is most associated with India but it's not unknown in Southeast Asia and China. This dish definitely wants the Chili Vinegar Sauce to finish the flavor so don't omit it.
