Break the cauliflower into bite sized pieces, including some stem.
Saute over a high flame in the olive oil, allowing the cauliflower to brown.
Add the garlic and saute, without allowing to brown.
When garlic has sauted, add 1/4 cup white wine and continue to saute over a high flame until the fluid has cooked down.
Add a generous amount of black pepper, then throw in the canned tomatoes and bring to boil before reducing heat and covering until the sauce reduces to a thick consistency.
Boil the orecchiette in salted water and save 1/2 cup water before draining.
Pour the sauce over the pasta and mix in the chopped parsley, sprinkle individual dishes with grated parmesan at the table. Serves 4.
