Cut head of cauliflower in half, then in half again. Remove stem; discard. Chop cauliflower into chunks into 1-2 inch pieces. Place inside a food processor; pulse. This can be done in 2-3 batches; between each batch, remove and set aside. OR use a bag of frozen riced cauliflower.
Heat up a large skillet to medium heat; add onion; saute 3 minutes; add garlic; saute 1-2 minutes. Add in riced cauliflower, salt and cumin; stir to coat.
Add in tomato paste, ¼ cup broth; turn up heat to medium high; stir until the tomato paste dissolves. If the mixture is too dry, add in more broth by the tablespoon. If the mixture is a little too wet, continue cooking until the liquid dissolves.
Serve hot, garnished with cilantro. Season to taste.
Makes 3 cups.
