curried cauliflower recipe

Joe and I LOVE Indian food and I made some vegetable curry other night in the crock-pot (I'll share that recipe soon!). I really wanted something on the side and I had a beautiful head of cauliflower in the fridge so I immediately thought of curried cauliflower. It was really good, so I had to share the recipe. It was so good that I ended up taking a photo of it for my "photo of the day"! You can see the photo here....

Curried Cauliflower-

2 cups cauliflower florets
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup petite diced canned tomatoes
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
salt (to taste)


1. Steam the cauliflower for about 5 minutes (more if you like your cauliflower softer), reserve 1/2 cup of the water.
2. Put the oil in a saucepan; add the garlic and onion, and saute until soft.
3. Stir in the curry, ginger and salt.
4. Add the tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
5. Add the cauliflower and the reserved 1/2 cup of water.
6. Cover and simmer for about 3 minutes (or longer if you want the vegetables well done).
7. Remove the cover to allow some of the liquid to evaporate.
8. Serve hot.

Enjoy!

God Bless,
