Categories     Entree

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 head cauliflower, loosely chopped, large stems removed (~5 cups or 535 g)
2 Tbsp (30 ml) coconut or avocado oil (if avoiding oil, sub water)
1 Tbsp (3 g) curry powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 Tbsp coconut or avocado oil ((if avoiding oil, sub water))
2 medium shallots ((diced))
3 Tbsp fresh ginger ((minced))
6 cloves garlic ((minced // ~3 Tbsp as original recipe is written))
4 Tbsp red curry paste*
2 medium sweet potatoes ((peeled and chopped into small bite-size pieces))
1 tsp curry powder ((plus more to taste))
1/4 tsp sea salt ((plus more to taste))
1 28-oz can diced tomatoes ((if unsalted, you'll add more salt to the dish))
1 14-ounce can full-fat coconut milk ((sub light for less fat))
1-2 Tbsp coconut sugar
2 Tbsp lemon juice ((to taste))
Fresh cilantro
Naan or Flatbread
Rice or cauliflower rice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (or more baking sheets if increasing batch size). Add cauliflower and season with oil (or water), curry powder, and sea salt.
  • Toss to combine and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges. Set aside.
  • In the meantime, heat a large pot over medium heat. Once hot, add water or oil, shallot, ginger, and garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add curry paste and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute. Then add sweet potatoes, curry powder, and salt. Stir to coat and cook for 2 minutes uncovered.
  • Add tomatoes, coconut milk, and coconut sugar and stir to combine. Increase heat to medium high until it reaches a very low boil. Then reduce heat to low or medium low (until simmering). Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally.
  • In the last minutes of cooking, add lemon juice and stir. Then taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt for saltiness, curry powder or paste for intense curry flavor, coconut sugar for sweetness, or more lemon juice for acidity.
  • Remove lid and turn heat off so the mixture can thicken slightly. To serve, divide roasted cauliflower between serving plates and top with desired amount of curry. Fresh cilantro and lemon juice make an excellent garnish. This dish is great on its own, but it's also delicious with rice, cauliflower rice, or vegan naan.
  • Leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator up to 4 days or in the freezer up to 1 month. Reheat on the stovetop over medium heat (or in the microwave) until hot and bubbly. Cauliflower and curry can be stored together.

SWEET POTATO-CAULIFLOWER GRATIN WITH CRISPY SAGE LEAVES



Sweet Potato-Cauliflower Gratin with Crispy Sage Leaves image

This potato gratin dish uses a lightened-up bechamel sauce, so you get the richness without the butter. And the fancy sage garnish couldn't be easier: All you need is 10 seconds to flash-fry the fresh leaves in some vegetable oil.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Main Dish Recipes     Casserole Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
20 fresh sage leaves, plus 1 tablespoon chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 head cauliflower, quartered and sliced 1/4-inch thick
Vegetable oil, for crisping sage

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Heat olive oil in a small pot over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Slowly whisk in milk and 1 cup water. Cook, whisking, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup Parmesan and the chopped sage. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Pour a third of the sauce in the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish. Arrange a third of the sweet potato and cauliflower slices along the bottom. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat twice with remaining sauce and vegetables. Cover dish with parchment-lined foil and bake until vegetables are tender, about 1 hour. Raise oven temperature to 425 degrees. Remove foil and sprinkle with remaining tablespoon of cheese. Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
  • Meanwhile, crisp sage leaves: Heat 1 inch vegetable oil in a small pot over medium-high heat until surface is shimmering slightly. Add a few leaves at a time (they'll bubble up) and cook until crisp, but still bright green, about 10 seconds. Transfer to a paper towel to drain. Season with salt. Top gratin with leaves.
