Cauliflower Curry

Due to my Jamaican background, most of my curry recipes will have herbs and spices that are typically found in a Jamaican recipe, like thyme, spring onions or scallions, allspice or pimento, and Scotch bonnet pepper. The flavor combination is incredibly delicious and flavorful, and so easy to make at home.

If you are intimidated by the tons of spices in typical Indian curry recipes, then you should try a Jamaican curry, which has more fresh herbs rather than spices.

Cauliflower Curry Ingredients

• Coconut oil – gives a rich coconut flavor if you use cold-processed coconut oil.
• Onion, Garlic, Ginger – a great flavor base in all my Jamaican curries.
• Thyme – used instead of cilantro in Jamaican recipes.
• Curry Powder – the kind of curry powder you use will affect the outcome of your recipe, so for an authentic Caribbean flavor, use , or for a simple curry that you can prepare at home, then my Easy Curry Powder Recipeis simple and flavorful.
• Allspice – Also known as pimento, Jamaica pepper, Jamaican pimento, it has a flavor combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. When added to the curry it gives a depth of flavor that is well rounded but not overpowering. It basically eliminates the need for the use of several individual spices.
• Green Onions – popular in Jamaican recipes.
• Tomato – helps to build a rich curry sauce
• Coconut Milk – also results in a flavorful, rich and creamy sauce. If you don’t like coconut milk, then substitute with vegetable broth or bouillon.
• Scotch Bonnet Pepper – gives a unique flavor and spicy flavor to your curry. I have found only a few peppers that can compare to the flavor of Scotch bonnet pepper, one of which is the Pimento pepper grown in the Caribbean, especially Trinidad. You can also substitute with habanero pepper or ground cayenne pepper. I usually leave my pepper whole, because I like the flavor more than the heat.
