Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1 large yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (14-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 (13.5-ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Heat the coconut oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the garlic and ginger. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the curry powder, turmeric, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir constantly for 30 seconds to toast the spices.
  5. Add the cauliflower florets, chickpeas, diced tomatoes, coconut milk, and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir everything together well.
  6. Bring the stew to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
  7. Taste the stew and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
  8. Ladle the stew into bowls. Garnish generously with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side.

Notes

  • For extra depth, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper with the other spices.
  • This stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors meld.
  • If you prefer a thicker stew, mash about a quarter of the chickpeas against the side of the pot before serving.
