Curry Marinated Cauliflower Recipes

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:

• Cut the cauliflower into tiny florets.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, stir-fry ginger puree and turmeric for 2 minutes, adding a few drops of water if mixture begins to stick.
• Add chili, and/or red chili powder, and cilantro, stir-frying an additional 2 minutes.
• Add cauliflower and cook for 5 minutes, adding a teaspoon of water if mixture starts to dry.
• Add remaining ingredients and 4 tablespoons water.
• Stir for 3-4 minutes, then reduce heat, cover pan, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 40 minutes more or until cauliflower is fork-tender.

Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Add the cauliflower, and cook until not quite done (the cauliflower will continue to cook a bit as it cools). Drain in a colander.
• Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl, then add the hot cauliflower and toss to coat.
• Cool to room temp before sealing in a lunch container. (Hot, moist food in a closed container just invites the bugs that make you sick.).

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Crush the cumin seed with the coriander seed and add to the pan. Add the curry powder, ginger, and garlic to the pan. Cook these spices, stirring until the oil colors and the spices are fragrant. Add the cauliflower florets to the pan and toss to coat.
• In a lidded plastic container, combine the water, rice wine vinegar, cider vinegar, sugar, and pickling salt. Shake to combine.
• Once the cauliflower is slightly tender, add it to a glass jar. Pour the pickling liquid over the cauliflower, filling to the top of the jar. Cool, chill, and store the pickles for 1 week to allow the flavors to develop thoroughly.

Steps:

• For the cauliflower: In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and butter to melt. Once melted, add the cauliflower florets, a nice sprinkle of salt and cook until golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Give a good toss and let cook for 3 more minutes. Repeat tosses until most of the cauliflower is coated with the butter and golden on parts, about 4 tosses or so. Cauliflower should still be crunchy at this point, but tender enough to eat a smaller floret. Go ahead, take a bite! Then, pour the rest of the florets into a large bowl and quickly cover tightly with plastic wrap. Cook in batches if the florets won't fit into one pan.
• While the cauliflower continues to steam in the bowl, make the sauce. In the same pan over medium heat, add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the onions, curry powder, turmeric and season with salt. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes, and then add the garlic and cook a bit more. Once the garlic is fragrant, add the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Cook until the stock is reduced by half, and then add the heavy cream and raise to a simmer. Cook until the sauce is reduced and thickened. With a slotted spoon, remove the cauliflower from the bowl and add to the pot. Raise the heat and simmer 5 minutes more. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Place cauliflower in a large bowl and cover with Italian dressing. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Drain cauliflower and stir in mayonnaise, bacon bits and cheese.

Steps:

• Start by making the pickled salad. Tip all the ingredients into a pan with 1 tsp sea salt and bring to the boil over a medium heat. Remove from the heat, tip into a bowl and cover until needed.
• Combine the coconut milk, lime juice, garlic and 2 tsp salt in a wide, deep dish to make a marinade. Cut two 2.5cm steaks from the middle of each cauliflower, slicing through the central stalk so they hold together. Place the steaks and any large florets into the marinade, rubbing it in so they're well-coated. Cover and leave at room temperature until needed. The steaks can be put in the marinade up to 2 hrs ahead.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Sprinkle the flour onto a plate and the breadcrumbs onto another. Shake off any excess marinade from the cauliflower steaks, place in the flour and turn to coat evenly. Return the steaks to the marinade, then turn to coat in the breadcrumbs. Arrange on a baking tray lined with baking parchment and drizzle with a little coconut oil. Bake for 35-40 mins until browned, turning over halfway through the cooking time.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over a medium heat and fry the onions, carrots and celery (if using) for 8-10 mins until softened. Boil the kettle, then add the garlic, ginger, curry powder and turmeric to the fried veg and stir for 2-3 mins. Pour in the coconut milk, lime juice and 100ml hot water from the kettle. Season, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 mins.
• Blitz the sauce until smooth using a hand blender, or a jug blender. If it's too thick, add a little more water. Season and keep warm. Drain the salad, discarding the pickling liquid.
• Divide the rice between plates, then top with the curry sauce and katsu cauliflower. Serve with the pickled salad, plenty of lime wedges for squeezing over, plus a sprinkling of coriander and a grinding of black pepper, if you like.

Steps:

• At least 2 hours ahead of time, mix yogurt, spices, lemon juice in a small bowl, refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Break cauliflower into small to medium sized florets.
• Toss in a large bowl with salt, pepper and olive oil.
• Spread on a cookie sheet in one layer and bake in pre-heated oven for about 15 minutes until beginning to soften.
• Remove from oven and return to large bowl.
• stir chopped cilantro into yogurt/spice mixture and spoon over califlower.
• toss to coat well (you may not need ALL of the yogurt, depending on how large of a head of cauliflower you have).
• return to baking sheet and continue to bake for about another 5-10 minutes (cook to your liking, some prefer some crunch left in their veggies).
• remove from oven and enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Combine cauliflower and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl. Mix brown sugar, salt, and curry powder in a small bowl. Taste and adjust until mixture is sweet and salty. Sprinkle over cauliflower and mix well. Spread cauliflower in a single layer on the baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn cauliflower and roast for an additional 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the marinade by combining all the ingredients with 1½ tsp sea salt in a mixing bowl and stirring until well combined. Remove any leaves from the cauliflower and slice them lengthways. Put the cauliflower leaf slices in a bowl with a pinch of salt. Set aside for later.
• Cut the cauliflower into thick slices about 1½cm-2cm thick - don't worry if some of the florets break off, it's all being roasted. Oil a large roasting tray and tip in the cauliflower slices and florets. Pour over the marinade and stir to coat, then cover with foil and marinate for at least 2 hrs, but you could leave it in the fridge all day or overnight if you wanted.
• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roast the cauliflower covered with foil for 40-45 mins. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Heat the olive oil with the cumin seeds in a heavy-bottomed frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and a pinch of salt and fry, stirring, for 8-10 mins until starting to caramelise. Tip in the chopped tomatoes and some seasoning. Turn the heat up slightly and cook, continuing to stir, for 6-8 mins until reduced, then add in the garlic, harissa and butter, and stir to combine. Blitz in a food processor until smooth, then pour back into the pan, add the chickpeas and cauliflower leaves, and warm through for a minute or two.
• Remove the foil from the cauliflower and return the tray to the oven for 10 mins to caramelise. Stir the tahini and olive oil into the yogurt in a bowl and season. Once the cauliflower is ready, divide the warm sauce between plates, then top with the cauliflower slices and tahini yogurt. Scatter over the almonds. Serve with a well-dressed salad of crunchy leaves.

Steps:

• Break cauliflower into pieces then steam until just tender.
• Combine the remaining ingredients and toss with the warm cauliflower.
• Let stand for 24 hours.

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Working in batches, blanch cauliflower until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain; transfer to a bowl.
• Whisk together vinegar, onion, and mustard in a small bowl. Pour in oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking constantly until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle vinaigrette over warm cauliflower, and add capers and parsley. Stir to combine.
• Cover, and refrigerate overnight or up to 1 day. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat a wok over a high heat. Add the fenugreek, coriander, cardamom seeds and curry leaves, and toast for 2 mins or until starting to brown and release their aromas. Remove and grind to a powder using a pestle and mortar or spice grinder.
• Return the wok to the high heat and add the oil. Add all the spices (including the ones you just ground) and cook for 1 min, then add the ginger, garlic, chilli, onion and 1 1/2 tsp salt, and stir-fry for 5 mins.
• Add the cauliflower, toss with the other ingredients so it's well coated, then stir-fry for 7-10 mins or until it starts to soften. Add the tomatoes and stir-fry for another 3-5 mins or until they start to break down.
• Pour in the coconut milk and cook over a medium heat, stirring, for 15-20 mins until the cauliflower is tender and the sauce has reduced. Squeeze over the lime juice and check for seasoning. Can be made a day ahead - pour in the coconut milk, reduce by half, then leave to cool and keep in the fridge.

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep non-stick frying pan, wok or shallow saucepan over a low heat. Add the oil, stir in the onion and fry over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and starting to turn golden.
• Stir the chilli, garlic and ginger into the onion mixture and fry for 2 minutes. Raise the heat a little, add the potatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the outsides are just softening. Stir in the curry paste, cook for 1 minute, then toss in the cauliflower and stirfry for a further 1 minute to coat.
• Pour the coconut milk into the pan and stir thoroughly. Add some salt, raise the heat and bring to the boil, stirring frequently, then half cover the pan and reduce to a slow simmer. Cook the curry for 20-25 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened slightly and the vegetables are tender.
• Half bury the eggs yolk-sides up in the sauce, then cover and continue to simmer gently for a further 1-2 minutes to heat through. Serve with a scattering of toasted almonds, if liked, and coriander.

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.
