BEEF WITH CAULIFLOWER (CROCK POT)
We really enjoyed this simple low cal/low fat crock pot meal. The original recipe suggests to serve it over rice but we liked it just as it is with some sour cream (the original recipe suggests plain yogurt and cilantro instead of the sour cream). Recipe source: The Healthy Slow Cooker

Tips for Making the Best Curried Beef and Cauliflower
- Use high-quality beef. Look for chuck roast or brisket, which are both flavorful and tender cuts of meat.
- Tenderize the beef before cooking. This will help to break down the tough fibers and make the meat more tender. You can tenderize the beef by marinating it in a mixture of yogurt, lemon juice, and spices, or by pounding it with a meat mallet.
- Cook the beef slowly. This will allow the flavors to develop and the meat to become fall-apart tender.
- Use a variety of spices in the curry paste. This will give the dish a complex and flavorful taste. Some common spices used in Thai curry paste include lemongrass, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, and chili peppers.
- Add vegetables to the curry. This will make the dish more nutritious and colorful. Some good vegetables to add to curried beef include potatoes, carrots, and green beans.
- Serve the curry with rice or noodles. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.
Conclusion
Curried beef and cauliflower is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, the cauliflower is soft and creamy, and the curry sauce is rich and flavorful. Serve this dish with rice or noodles and a side of vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
