Kate Humble’s cauliflower curry recipe By Lauren Taylor, PA Kate Humble created this recipe after being inspired by professional vegetable grower and custodian of Moor Park Garden in Wales, Ben Ward. Apparently cauliflowers are fiendishly tricky to grow though. “Luckily there is nothing tricky about this curry, which makes the most of the cauliflower’s ability to carry flavour,” says Humble.
3. Stir through the ginger and garlic and cook for a further minute.Then add the curry powder and stir through to mix.
4. Tip in the tomatoes with a pinch of salt and mix well. Cook for a further 5 minutes over a medium heat, until the tomatoes are collapsed and soft. 5. Stir through the cauliflower and another good pinch or 2 of salt, mixing really well so that all the florets are coated in the spices.Add the stock, cover and bring to a simmer. 6. Simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring now and again, until the cauliflower is tender. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
