Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 head cauliflower, loosely chopped, large stems removed (~5 cups or 535 g)
2 Tbsp (30 ml) coconut or avocado oil (if avoiding oil, sub water)
1 Tbsp (3 g) curry powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 Tbsp coconut or avocado oil ((if avoiding oil, sub water))
2 medium shallots ((diced))
3 Tbsp fresh ginger ((minced))
6 cloves garlic ((minced // ~3 Tbsp as original recipe is written))
4 Tbsp red curry paste*
2 medium sweet potatoes ((peeled and chopped into small bite-size pieces))
1 tsp curry powder ((plus more to taste))
1/4 tsp sea salt ((plus more to taste))
1 28-oz can diced tomatoes ((if unsalted, you'll add more salt to the dish))
1 14-ounce can full-fat coconut milk ((sub light for less fat))
1-2 Tbsp coconut sugar
2 Tbsp lemon juice ((to taste))
Fresh cilantro
Naan or Flatbread
Rice or cauliflower rice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or more baking sheets if increasing batch size). Add cauliflower and season with oil (or water), curry powder, and sea salt.
  • Toss to combine and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges. Set aside.
  • In the meantime, heat a large pot over medium heat. Once hot, add water or oil, shallot, ginger, and garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add curry paste and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute. Then add sweet potatoes, curry powder, and salt. Stir to coat and cook for 2 minutes uncovered.
  • Add tomatoes, coconut milk, and coconut sugar and stir to combine. Increase heat to medium high until it reaches a very low boil. Then reduce heat to low or medium low (until simmering). Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally.
  • In the last minutes of cooking, add lemon juice and stir. Then taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt for saltiness, curry powder or paste for intense curry flavor, coconut sugar for sweetness, or more lemon juice for acidity.
  • Remove lid and turn heat off so the mixture can thicken slightly. To serve, divide roasted cauliflower between serving plates and top with desired amount of curry. Fresh cilantro and lemon juice make an excellent garnish. This dish is great on its own, but it's also delicious with rice, cauliflower rice, or vegan naan.
  • Leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator up to 4 days or in the freezer up to 1 month. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat (or in the microwave) until hot and bubbly. Cauliflower and curry can be stored together.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons red curry paste, such as Maesri
1 can (15 ounces) coconut milk
1/2 head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch pieces (4 cups)
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (2 cups)
1 zucchini, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch pieces (2 cups)
1 cup frozen shelled edamame
3 cups packed baby spinach
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Cooked grains, such as quinoa, and halved limes, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large pot over medium. Add onion, garlic, and ginger, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Add curry paste and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add coconut milk and 1 cup water, along with cauliflower and sweet potato. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and partially cover.
  • Simmer until cauliflower is tender, about 15 minutes. Add zucchini and edamame; return to a simmer, then partially cover and cook until zucchini is tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in spinach and cook, uncovered, until bright green and just wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste. Serve over grains, with cilantro and a squeeze of lime.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower and sweet potato. For the best results, select a head of cauliflower that is compact and has tightly packed florets. Avoid any heads with brown spots or signs of wilting. Choose sweet potatoes that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin.
  • Cut the vegetables evenly. This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the vegetables will steam instead of roasting, resulting in a soggy dish. Roast the vegetables in batches if necessary.
  • Roast the vegetables until they are tender and slightly caramelized. This will give them a delicious flavor and texture.
  • Season the vegetables generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to taste.
  • Make the curry sauce while the vegetables are roasting. This will save time and ensure that the sauce is hot and ready when the vegetables are done.
  • Serve the curry over rice or your favorite grain. Add a dollop of yogurt or sour cream and a sprinkle of cilantro or parsley for garnish.

Conclusion:

This cauliflower and sweet potato curry is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight dinner. It is packed with flavor and nutrients, and it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy curry recipe, give this one a try!
