Cauliflower Curry with Crispy Shallots
Cauliflower is kind of our thing here at PureWow. Which is why we’re excited to bring you our latest dinner creation: cauliflower curry with crispy shallots. We simmer our favorite vegetable in a Thai-inspired yellow curry, which is mild (not spicy) yet big on flavor. Serve this as a main dish over rice or as a side dish. And should there be any leftovers, the curry tastes even better the next day.
Ingredients
Curry
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
3 tablespoons yellow curry paste
One 14-ounce can coconut milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Shallots
¼ cup olive oil
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
Garnish
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Directions
1. Make the Curry: In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté until tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, 1 minute more.
2. Add the cauliflower and sauté until it starts to become tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the curry paste and coconut milk, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and season to taste with salt and pepper. Simmer until the sauce reduces slightly and the cauliflower is very tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
3. Make the Shallots: In a small pot, heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the shallot and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
4. Make the Garnish: To serve, ladle the cauliflower into bowls and garnish with crispy shallots, scallions and cilantro.
