Cauliflower and Parsnip Coconut Curry

Wholesome curry recipe with cauliflower, parsnips, carrot, coconut milk, almonds, raisins and warming spices.

Welcome the 1st of March, we are a step closer to welcome the spring! Although it doesn’t feel like it today with heavy rain, dark clouds and cold weather we’ve been having. If you need a little cheering up, maybe you can be tempted with this bowl of Cauliflower and Parsnip Coconut Curry.

It’s healthy, cozy and wholesome packed with some yummy veggies and warming spices. This is a sweet tasting curry with cauliflower, sweet root vegetables, coconut milk, almonds, raisins and spices.

It’s a quick recipe, all of the vegetables cook very quickly, but the sauce does need a bit more simmering to blend all the flavors nicely together. You can boil the sauce even longer and then just add the parsnip and cauliflower towards the end. They only need 5-10 minutes to cook.

I’ve actually managed to overcook the cauliflower the second time making this recipe and almost given up on taking these pictures. So it might be better to take the pot off the heat early rather than later. If you don’t have all the spices, you could replace them with 2 teaspoons of garam masala blend instead.

You could also use only one can of coconut milk with some water to make up for the difference, but the extra coconut milk makes the sauce a bit more creamy and thicker. Hope you’ll enjoy this recipe, it’s really tasty.
