ReplyDeletethis looks great
ReplyDeleteI love cauliflower! Your pics made me sooo in the mood for it! It looks so delish!
ReplyDeleteLooks great. What do you mean by "sweat garlic"?
ReplyDeleteGreat question Tali! When a recipe calls for "sweating", it means to put uniform cut vegetables in a pan with minimal fat or oil. The end result is not to brown the vegetables, but to get them hot and have their cell walls break to release the moisture inside them. When done, it will look translucent and wet. The sweating process brings out a milder, softer taste and texture in the vegetables. It is usually done on medium heat on the stove. The pan or pot may be covered to sweat the vegetables quickly, otherwise, keep your eye on the pan and stir occasionally. The point is NOT to brown them. Thank you for reading!
DeleteI would love to make this for me and my husband. Your recipe indicates 2 oz Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 8 oz oil, and 8 oz Extra Olive Oil. This seems like a lot of oil...what is the correct amount? Thanks for your help!
ReplyDeleteYou don't use all of the oil on the cauliflower. You will have a lot of curry oil left over for repeat uses.
DeleteGotcha. That makes sense, thank you! I will try it today for lunch!
