Break the cauliflower into small florets and wash thoroughly. Drain and set aside.
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds, and let them sizzle until they begin to crackle.
Add the chopped onion to the pan, and sauté until the onion turns translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Sprinkle in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder. Mix well and cook for 1 minute to let the spices get aromatic.
Add the cauliflower florets to the pan, stirring to coat them evenly in the spice mixture.
Pour in the water and sprinkle with salt. Cover the pan and let it cook on low heat for about 10 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Remove the lid and allow any excess moisture to evaporate over medium heat for another 2-3 minutes.
Turn off the heat, add the lemon juice, and toss with chopped cilantro.
Serve hot as a side dish or as a main with keto-friendly bread.
