Add the cauliflower, stirring to coat it with the oil, and 1/2 cup water and steam the mixture, covered, adding more water a few tablespoons at a time if it evaporates, until the cauliflower is just tender, about 6 to 10 minutes.

Season the cauliflower mixture with the lemon juice, salt, and pepper and stir in the coriander, if using.
