Cauliflower-Chickpea Curry

Another tempting dish on this month's Secret Recipe Club: A Fit and Spicy Life's Chickpea-Cauliflower Curry that she adapted from Katherine Martinelli's version.

As always, my execution of a recipe depends, largely, on what I have on-hand. I still had an orange cauliflower head and potatoes from my High Ground Organics CSA box; I always have a can of organic chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans) in my cupboard for when I don't have time to soak and simmer them; and I love coconut milk in my curries. I ditched the tomatoes and the onion.

Here's my version of this dinner...

olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 head orange cauliflower, cut into florets
4 small potatoes, cubed
5 carrots, sliced
2 T curry powder
1 t ground ginger
1/2 t ground cardamom
1 can organic chickpeas
1 can light coconut milk
Salt and pepper

Heat a little oil in a large skillet. Add the garlic, potatoes, carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the cauliflower, curry powder, cardamom, ginger and allow to cook 1 minute. Add the chickpeas and coconut milk and stir to combine. Cover and cook over low heat until the cauliflower is tender but still has bite, about 15 minutes (just the amount of time it takes rice to cook!). Season with salt and pepper.

Serve over rice.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo. I understand the need to self-isolate. And we are abiding by the social distancing guidelines put in place by our state. But, boo, nonetheless. Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.  My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons.
