Cauliflower Turmeric Coconut Curry

This warming curry is the ultimate comfort food—creamy, aromatic, and packed with immune-boosting ingredients. Cauliflower and kale provide fiber and antioxidants, while turmeric and ginger bring powerful anti-inflammatory benefits.

Coconut milk gives it a luscious, dairy-free creaminess.

Ingredients

Equipment

• Wooden spoon or spatula

Instructions

1. Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
2. Add garlic and ginger, stirring for another minute until fragrant.
3. Stir in turmeric and curry powder. Toast the spices for 30 seconds to release their flavors.
4. Add the cauliflower florets. Stir well to coat with the spices.
5. Pour in diced tomatoes and coconut milk. Add sea salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
6. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until cauliflower is just tender.
7. Add kale and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until wilted but still bright green.
8. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
