Curried Cauliflower and Spinach
"This is good and very pretty. The cauliflower turns a lovely yellow color. Be generous with the spices and use lots of garlic! Don’t use frozen spinach for this one. This recipe is meant to be served as a side dish or as one of many dishes in the typical Indian style."

DH an I had this for dinner and we loved it. Made it exactly as written and then at the table, sprinkled a little Parmesan cheese to experiment a bit. Yum! Can hardly wait til the next time! Thank you for posting! -
I enjoyed this very much. It's a fantastic meatless dish. The cauliflower was just the right tenderness. I waited until the last 7-8 minutes to add the spinach, so it wouldn't be too mushy. I only used 12 oz of fresh spinach and I tought that was plenty. I added 1 tsp of curry powder (since the title says "curried" but none was listed). Also, I cut the amount of oil in half to cut out some fat calories. I'll certainly make this again. Thanx for posting this easy veggie curry!

I can't stop eating it, and I've eaten myself into a food coma. <br /><br />4 Stars The recipe is wonderful as is. I can't think of a single improvement and I will most likely make it again. <br /><br />3 Stars This needed a little *something*something*. I might make it again, but will add my own improvements if I do. <br /><br />I love to eat! And I love to cook. I tend to take over the kitchen when I get in there. Even the dog knows the command get outta my kitchen! LOL. Cooking for other people and trying new recipes or foods is FUN! I have a small (but growing quickly!!) cookbook collection and one of my favorite things to do is to read recipes and plan meals. Rachael Ray, Horn of the Moon and Moosewood are favorites of mine. <br /><br />We spend a lot of time outdoors camping, hiking and backpacking. Yup. I cook in the woods too! I've made deals with my hiking buddies... If they carry in my food, I'll cook for them. I recently published a backpacking cookbook.
