One of the benefits of this dish is that it can made entirely without fresh ingredients. While I always prefer fresh, of course, it isn't always possible! Last minute guests? Or perhaps you've forgotten one of them is a vegetarian and need to cook up something quickly that they can eat. This recipe doesn't have a lot of sauce, so it works well as a side dish to “wetter” curry dishes. If you want to turn it into a vegetarian main meal, you may like to increase the quantity of the sauce ingredients.

How to Make a Low Carb Indian Cauliflower Curry

Add some oil to a large skillet and place over a medium heat. Add onion powder, ground cardamom, ground turmeric, garam masala, cumin and (if desired) cayenne. Stir to mix and cook for a two minutes. It will smell wonderfully fragrant!

Add some canned tomato sauce (not ketchup!) and broth or stock (vegetable or chicken works well), and stir well to form a sauce. Add in a bag of frozen cauliflower florets, and turn to coat them in the sauce.
