👨‍🍳 Method

For the Fried onion

  1. 1
    Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveLarge pot
  2. 2
    Add the onion and fry 4 minutes, stirring now and then, until the onion is soft and translucent and starts to turn golden at the edges. If it browns too fast, lower the heat.
    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
    💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.

To assemble

  1. 3
    Add the garlic, curry powder, cumin, turmeric, salt and black pepper and stir.
  2. 4
    Add the tomatoes and cook 5 minutes.
    Stove
  3. 5
    Add the carrot, cauliflower and coconut milk and bring to a boil.
    Stove
  4. 6
    Turn down the heat, cover and simmer 15 minutes.
    ⚙ SimmeringStoveLid
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  5. 7
    Sprinkle the cilantro on top.
  6. 8
    Serve with the rice.
