Curried Cauliflower And Chicken Recipes

Steps:

• Put the oil in a 12-inch skillet, and turn the heat to high; add the onion, and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown. While it's cooking, trim the cauliflower and cut the florets into 1/2-inch-thick pieces.
• When the onion has browned a little, add the cumin seed and curry powder and cook about 30 seconds. Add the cauliflower, and stir, still over high heat, for another minute. Cut up the tomatoes, and add them to the pan along with their juice, 1/4 cup water and a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper. Cover, and turn the heat to medium-low.
• Cook 10 minutes, stirring once or twice. Add the chicken, stir, cover the pan again and cook 6 to 8 minutes longer, or until the chicken is cooked through. (If the sauce appears to be drying up at any time, add a little more water.) Stir in the lemon juice, taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish if you like, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Whisk the vegetable broth, coconut milk, garlic, ginger, serrano, curry powder and 2 teaspoons salt together in a medium bowl until combined. Add the chickpeas and spinach and stir to coat.
• Spread the rice evenly in the bottom of the prepared dish. Pour in the coconut-milk mixture, distributing the chickpeas and spinach evenly over the rice. Scatter the cauliflower and onion over the top, making sure to go all the way to the edge of the pan (it's okay if the cauliflower is not completely submerged in liquid).
• Cover tightly with foil and bake until the vegetables have softened but are still vibrant, about 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the cauliflower is charred in spots and the rice is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let sit for 5 minutes to allow the rice to absorb more of the moisture. Serve topped with cilantro, a drizzle of yogurt and lime wedges for squeezing.

Steps:

• Heat the ghee in a deep skillet or pot over medium flame. Add the onion, curry powder, and ginger; cook and stir for a few minutes to soften the onion. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, until the tomatoes break down and soften, about 6 minutes. Mix in the cauliflower, chickpeas, tomato paste, and 1 cup of water; stir everything together. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Uncover, and continue cooking until the excess moisture has evaporated and the cauliflower and chickpeas are coated with a thick gravy. Season with salt, to taste, and garnish with cilantro before serving.
• Put the butter in a heavy saucepan over moderate heat, swirl the pot around to ensure that it melts slowly and does not sizzle or brown. Increase the heat and bring the butter to a boil. When the surface is covered with foam, stir gently and reduce the heat to the lowest possible setting. Gently simmer, uncovered, and undisturbed for 45 minutes, until the milk solids in the bottom of the pan have turned golden brown and the butter on top is transparent. Strain the ghee through a sieve lined with several layers of cheesecloth. The ghee should be perfectly clear and smell nutty; pour into a glass jar and seal tightly.
• Toast the whole spices (coriander, cumin, fennel, cloves, mustard, cardamom and peppercorns) and the chiles in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, shaking the pan often to prevent them from burning. Toast for a couple of minutes until the spices smell fragrant. In a clean coffee grinder, grind the toasted spices together to a fine powder. Add the turmeric and give it another quick buzz to combine. Use the spice blend immediately, or store in a sealed jar for as long as 1 month.

Steps:

• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro Heat oil in large skillet over high heat. Add onions and sauté until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add curry powder and stir 20 seconds. Add cauliflower and garbanzo beans; stir 1 minute. Add diced tomatoes with chiles, then coconut milk; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and boil gently until cauliflower is tender and liquid thickens slightly, stirring occasionally, about 16 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in cilantro; serve.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Butter an 8-inch baking dish.
• Cook the cauliflower florets in boiling water until just fork-tender; drain well.
• Place/arrange the cauliflower florets in baking dish.
• In a bowl stir together the chicken soup, cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, mayo, melted butter, curry powder and black pepper until well combined; pour over the cauliflower in the dish.
• Sprinkle top with 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, then sprinkle with the crushed cracker crumbs.
• Bake for about 25-30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place cauliflower in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm. Drain, and place in a greased casserole dish.
• In a large bowl, mix together soup, mayonnaise, milk, and curry powder. Pour over cauliflower. Crush crackers, and mix with butter. Sprinkle over cauliflower.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees.
• Grease a casserole dish large enough to hold the cauliflower mixture (I use an 8x8-inch baking dish).
• Cook the cauliflower until firm-tender (cook only to JUST tender, do not over cook the cauliflower).
• Place the cauliflower in a prepared baking dish.
• In a bowl, combine the undiluted chicken soup, milk, 2 tablespoons melted butter, mayo, cheese and curry powder, salt (or seasoning salt if using) and pepper; mix to combine.
• Pour the soup mixture over the cauliflower in the dish (do not mix).
• In a small bowl, combine the cracker crumbs with melted butter.
• Sprinkle over the soup mixture in the baking dish.
• Bake for about 30 minutes.
