CAULIFLOWER CURRY RECIPE

Steps:

• Clean cauliflower and chop the florets to desired sizes. Optional - heat 3 cups water in a large bowl, add cauliflower florets to the slightly hot water. Leave it for some time. Rinse them under running water and drain them.
• Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard and cumin. When they begin to sizzle add the curry leaves and fry for 30 seconds.
• Add onions and green chilli. Saute until pink or golden.
• Stir in ginger garlic and saute till a nice aroma comes out for about 30 to 60 seconds.
• Then add tomatoes and salt. Saute until the tomatoes turn soft and mushy.
• Add turmeric, red chilli powder, garam masala and coriander powder. Saute for 30 to 60 seconds until the masala smells aromatic.
• Then add cauliflower florets and saute for 1 to 2 mins.
• Pour ½ to 1 cup water or coconut milk and give a good mix. I used 1 cup water at this step. Young cauliflower releases lots of moisture, so be careful not to add a lot of water at one time.
• Cover and cook until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
• If needed add more water or coconut milk to bring the curry to a desired consistency. I added half cup coconut milk at this stage.
• Taste the curry and add more salt if needed. Garnish cauliflower curry with coriander leaves.

CAULIFLOWER CURRY

Steps:

• Heat a wok over a high heat. Add the fenugreek, coriander, cardamom seeds and curry leaves, and toast for 2 mins or until starting to brown and release their aromas. Remove and grind to a powder using a pestle and mortar or spice grinder.
• Return the wok to the high heat and add the oil. Add all the spices (including the ones you just ground) and cook for 1 min, then add the ginger, garlic, chilli, onion and 1 1/2 tsp salt, and stir-fry for 5 mins.
• Add the cauliflower, toss with the other ingredients so it's well coated, then stir-fry for 7-10 mins or until it starts to soften. Add the tomatoes and stir-fry for another 3-5 mins or until they start to break down.
• Pour in the coconut milk and cook over a medium heat, stirring, for 15-20 mins until the cauliflower is tender and the sauce has reduced. Squeeze over the lime juice and check for seasoning. Can be made a day ahead - pour in the coconut milk, reduce by half, then leave to cool and keep in the fridge.
