Cauliflower and Potato Curry with Peas
We have a curry once a week in our family. Curries are so flavorful (if you like curry, that is – ha!), veggie packed, easy to throw together, one pot, and usually can be made with whatever you’ve got in your pantry. We always have multiple cans of coconut milk at a time, because if I don’t know what to have for dinner, I make a curry!
For that reason, I always plan for at least one curry per week and thus, I have a lot of curry recipes and today, I’m sharing with you one of my favorites! Potatoes really soak up the curry spices and makes this curry one you don’t need to serve with any grains – it’s filling already.
The peas give this curry some plant based protein and add the perfect little earthy crunch to every bite. If you can’t find peas, try subbing in with green beans. You can also omit the cauliflower and use shrimp or chicken, if you want to make this recipe, but like your meat!
And a note about the spice here – you can always add more chili powder to give this more spice. Whether you like a spicy curry or not, I know you’re going to love this one!
