Steps:
Heat oil and fry cauliflower until just brown. Remove from pan. Fry all the masala pastes except garam masala and bay leaves for several minutes, sprinkling water if necessary. When the masalas are done, add the rice and fry for 5-7 mins. When the rice is well fried, add a cup of water and salt and sugar to taste. Cover pan and simmer over medium heat until rice is nearly done, but not dry. Add the cauliflower. Mix well, cover and cook for several mins. longer. By this time rice and cauliflower should be well cooked and there should be some gravy in the pan. Stir in the garam masala paste. In a separate pan, heat ghee and fry the bay leaves for a couple of mins. Pour over cauliflower-rice mixture. Stir and remove the Kopir Muri Ghanto from fire.
