Creamy Cauliflower Curry

About this Recipe...

This creamy cauliflower curry is a different kind of preparation with cauliflower. Here cauliflower is cooked with cashew nut paste, blend of yogurt and creamy coconut milk which takes this dish to a next level. The combination of this rich white gravy with cauliflower is really a bliss.

My family love this dish a lot and whenever I have coconut milk in my pantry I surely made this dish. It's very much different from the regular cauliflower curry. Once in a while try this recipe and you will make it again-n-again.



Ingredients

  • 1 Medium size Cauliflower
  • 1/4 Cup Frozen Green peas
  • 3 Tbsp Oil
  • Whole garam masala
  • 1/2 Cup Onion paste
  • 1 tsp Ginger paste
  • 1 tsp Green chilli paste
  • 1/4 Cup Yoghurt
  • 1/2 Cup Cashew paste
  • 1/2 Cup Coconut milk
  • Salt as per taste
  • 1/2 tsp Sugar
  • 1 tsp Clarified butter

Directions

  1. Cut the cauliflower into florets and lightly fry it till it 50% cooked and keep it aside.
  2. Now in a pan add oil, when the oil is hot add whole garam masala (here I m using cinnamon stick, cloves, black pepper corn, cardamom and bay leaf) and fry it for 30 seconds. Now add onion paste and fry it till raw smell goes away.
  3. Now add ginger and green chili paste and fry it for sometime.
  4. Meanwhile in a bowl take the yoghurt and little water, whisk it till it become smooth and add to the pan.
  5. Mix everything well and if you see the mixture gets dried then add some water and cook it.
  6. Now add cashew paste(here I boiled 15 cashew nuts and then make it to a smooth paste) and mix it with the gravy, at this point of time you can add the desired water to make a nice gravy.
  7. When the gravy will start boiling, add coconut milk, salt and sugar as per your taste, cover the lid of the pan and cook it till it comes to another boil.
  8. Now add the fried cauliflower and green peas (I am using frozen peas, if you are using regular peas then boiled it before adding it to the gravy) and mix with the gravy and cover the lid of your pan for sometimes till the cauliflower gets cooked properly.
  9. After sometime check the cauliflower and the seasoning, if everything is cooked properly, add the clarified butter and switch of the flame and serve the curry hot with roti, rice or pulao.
