Ingredients
- For the cauliflower mixture:

- 1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 1/3 cups canned full-fat coconut milk, divided, plus more, to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced or grated, divided
- 1 (2-inch-long) piece fresh ginger root, grated, divided
- kosher salt, to taste
- black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon garam masala
- 2 teaspoons yellow curry powder
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- Optional, for serving:
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- white rice, to taste, cooked and warm
- naan, to taste, warm
Directions
Step 1 -Preheat the broiler on high heat.
Step 2 -Use the extra olive oil to grease a baking sheet.
Step 3 -In a large bowl, add the cauliflower florets, 1/3 cup of the coconut milk, 2 of the minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of the grated ginger, the salt, and the pepper and mix until it is well-combined.
Step 4 -Let the seasoned cauliflower florets rest at room temperature, about 10 minutes.
Step 5 -Spread the seasoned cauliflower florets in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6 -Broil the cauliflower florets until they just begin to char on the edges, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7 -In a large skillet over medium heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of the olive oil.
Step 8 -Add the onions to the heated olive oil and cook until they are fragrant, about 5 minutes.
Step 9 -Add the remaining minced garlic cloves and the remaining grated ginger to the onions and cook, about 5 minutes.
Step 10 -Stir the garam masala, the curry powder, the turmeric, and the cayenne into the onion mixture and cook until the seasonings are fragrant, about 1 minute.
Step 11 -Add the tomato paste and 2 cups of the remaining coconut milk to the onion mixture and stir to combine.
Step 12 -Bring the sauce to a boil and cook until it has slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Step 13 -Stir the coconut oil into the sauce mixture. If the sauce is too thick, gradually stir in the extra coconut milk until it reaches the desired consistency.
Step 14 -Add the broiled cauliflower florets plus their juices from the baking sheet to the sauce mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce slightly thickens, about 5 minutes.
Step 15 -Transfer the skillet from the heat and season the cauliflower mixture with the salt and the pepper.
Step 16 -Garnish the cauliflower mixture with the cilantro.
Step 17 -Serve the cauliflower mixture with the rice and the naan.
