Add the cauliflower and vegetable broth and put a lid on the skillet, cook for 8 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. Remove the lid, turn the heat to low, and mash the cauliflower with a fork or potato masher to break into smaller pieces until it resembles a scramble.
Add the nutritional yeast, turmeric, kala namak and black pepper and mix until well combined and the cauliflower has turned yellow. Add more kala namak, to taste.
Let sit for 5 minute for any remaining liquid to absorb. Divide among serving bowls and top with avocado and salsa, if using.
