Tomato And Cauliflower Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Make the curry: Heat the vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and jalapeno. Cook, stirring, until sizzling, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until it dissolves into the oil, about 1 minute. Add the curry powder, garam masala and cinnamon stick. Cook, stirring, until the spices darken, about 1 minute. Add 2 cups water, the cauliflower and chickpeas. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook until the cauliflower is almost tender, about 6 minutes.
• Add the quartered tomatoes to the pot. Simmer, uncovered, until the tomatoes soften, about 5 minutes. Add the corn, heavy cream and honey. Simmer until the cauliflower is tender and the tomatoes break down, about 7 minutes. Season with salt. Remove the cinnamon stick.
• Meanwhile, make the tomato yogurt: Mix the grated tomato, lime juice, yogurt, 1/4 cup cilantro and the scallions in a bowl; season with salt. Top each serving of curry with the tomato yogurt and the remaining cilantro. Serve with naan.

Steps:

• Chop one of the onions and cook gently in half of the oil.
• Add the chilli and spices and cook for a minute.
• Add the salt and cauliflower to the pan, turn in the mixture then pour in the stock and the tomato puree.

Steps:

Add the tamarind, passata, stock and coconut, and bring to the boil.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan. Cook the onion for 10 mins until soft, then add the ginger, garlic, turmeric, cumin and curry powder. Cook for 1 min more. Stir in the tomatoes and sugar. Add the cauliflower, potatoes and split chilli, seasoning to taste. Cover with a lid and gently cook for a good 30 mins, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender - add a drop of water if you need to, but it is meant to be a dry curry.
