Cauliflower Curry

The story behind

Sometimes, when I need a hug from my plate, I make this curry. It takes me straight back to that tiny spice shop I discovered years ago; that scent of turmeric and cumin is unmistakable. It’s a recipe I love making when I have people over, because it always leaves everyone smiling and asking for seconds. I like to enjoy this at lunchtime, when I have the time to savor every spice without rushing. I always pair it with some freshly made naan bread and a mango lassi to balance that little kick of heat that I find so fascinating. It’s incredible how something as simple as cauliflower can transform into something so deep and comforting; it’s pure kitchen magic that makes you feel like, even for just a moment, you are somewhere else in the world.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Cook the basmati rice with a pinch of turmeric so it takes on that beautiful golden color.
  2. 2
    In a large pan, sauté the cauliflower florets until they start to turn slightly golden.
  3. 3
    Add the curry paste and stir well so the cauliflower is coated in all those lovely aromas.
  4. 4
    Pour in the coconut milk and let it simmer over low heat until the cauliflower is tender and the sauce has thickened.
  5. 5
    Serve a base of golden rice and top it with the hot curry, sprinkling fresh cilantro on top to finish.
