CURRIED CAULIFLOWER RECIPES RECIPES

Curried Cauliflower is one of very commonly prepared vegetable curry in my home.

Traditionally, cauliflower curry is prepared with potatoes or sweet green peas and all spices mentioned in the recipe. I, however, often prepare cauliflower curry with spices and peas (called Matar in Hindi), but no potatoes (called Aloo in Hindi). I don't really like potatoes with cauliflower (famous as Aloo Gobi)... no specific reason... just personal preference! But, peas (Matar Gobi) is always my favorite. Love the sweetness of sweet green peas with spices and cauliflower!

Aloo (Potato) Gobi is very famous in North Region of India. All recipe remains same, just needs addition of peeled and diced potato while adding Cauliflower. Addition of potato makes curry substantial and also spicy flavors of curry well adjust with potatoes. So, feel free, add 1-2 two small potatoes to the curry if you prefer.

This dry cauliflower curry will be a nice surprise for everyone who don't like curry.

BTW! does anyone really hate curries???

I thing everyone adore curries!

Prove me wrong here! Tell me if you know anyone who don't like curries?

As you start thinking... let me correct one mis-conception here! I know many people who think curry means gravy with lots of turmeric or curry powder. I have to tell you this: curry can be dry curry as well, like this one. For a better word, you can also call this "Masala Cauliflower". In India, we don't use word curry to refer all gravies. Curry is sure a Europe invented word. In India, we have a name for every curry, dish with gravy or no gravy. Plus it is not necessary that all dishes will have curry powder or turmeric. Infact, there no curry powder found in North part of India! Individual masalas (spices) are combined per need to make different powders for different recipes.

Got it? thanks for listening, my friends! :)

Okay, now, Serving Suggestions:

Mild spice and sweet with strong flavor of curry powder, this curry can also be served on the side with grilled meat.

In my home, we often fry leftover cauliflower curry in plain steamed rice for a delicious day-after "curried cauliflower fried rice" for lunch. yummy!! 

Or how about some Cauliflower Veggie Tacos??
