Preparation
  1. Start by washing and cutting the cauliflower into small florets.
Cooking
  1. In your large pot or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for about 5-6 minutes, until soft and golden.

  3. Stir in the curry powder, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for another minute.
  4. Pour in the coconut milk and add the tomato paste. Mix until combined.
  5. Add the cauliflower florets and stir gently to coat. Bring to a gentle boil.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 15-20 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. Stir occasionally.
  7. Once cooked, taste the korma and add salt and pepper to your preference.
  8. For a smoother sauce, blend using an immersion blender, or serve as is.
