COCONUT-CURRY CAULIFLOWER MASH

Steps:

• Steam cauliflower until tender (breaks easily when touched).
• Drain and set aside in covered pan.
• In a small sauce pan, add curry and turn heat on medium.
• Shake the curry over the heat for a brief time to release the oil and you can smell the curry.
• Be careful not to brown as it will become grainy and bitter.
• Add the ginger and coconut milk and simmer until small bubbles appear, stirring occasionally.
• Remove from heat, add to the cauliflower and mash.
• Salt and pepper to taste.

COCONUT CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Coat the bottom of a thick bottomed skillet with vegetable oil.
• When hot, add the cauliflower florets and fry them until brown, taking care not to burn them.
• Pour in the coconut milk and stir in the curry paste until well integrated.
• Simmer gently until the coconut milk is thick and creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Just before serving add the cilantro and salt to taste.
• Note: I recommend freezing any extra curry paste you might have left over; it seems to keep almost indefinitely.
