SPICY CAULIFLOWER WITH GINGER, CUMIN AND TOMATOES



Spicy Cauliflower With Ginger, Cumin and Tomatoes image

Cauliflower lends itself well to curries, and the combination of cauliflower and turmeric, an essential spice in curries, has an added health benefit for men. Studies sited on the World's Healthiest Foods website (whfoods.com), have shown that the main phytonutrient in turmeric (curcumin) and a phytonutrient that is abundant in cruciferous vegetables (phenethyl isothiocyanates), when taken together can be effective in preventing prostate cancer and also in inhibiting the spread of established prostate cancer cells. Serve this chile-laced stir-fry with rice or other grains, and with flat Indian bread.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large cauliflower (1 3/4 to 2 pounds), broken into florets
2 tablespoons canola or peanut oil
A 1-inch piece of ginger, peeled, sliced, and cut in thin slivers or minced
1 teaspoon cumin seeds, lightly toasted and crushed
1 to 2 serrano chiles, to taste, seeded if desired and minced
1 cup chopped fresh or canned tomatoes
2 teaspoons coriander seeds, lightly toasted and ground
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
Salt to taste
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1 lime, cut in wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the cauliflower in a steaming basket above 1 inch boiling water. Cover and steam for 1 minute. Lift the lid and allow steam to escape for 15 seconds, then cover again and steam for 5 minutes, or until the cauliflower is just tender. Remove from the heat and refresh with cold water. Quarter the larger florets and set the cauliflower aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet or wok above medium heat. Add the ginger, cumin seeds and chiles and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the cauliflower and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, ground coriander, cayenne, turmeric, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, until the tomatoes have cooked down and the mixture is fragrant. Taste and adjust salt. Stir in the cilantro, stir for another 30 seconds, and serve, passing lime wedges for squeezing.

GINGER-CAULIFLOWER SOUP



Ginger-Cauliflower Soup image

This simple soup, steeped with ginger and lemongrass, features a bright relish of lime zest, fresh ginger and scallions. The topping offsets the subtle, sensible cauliflower, and the soup is deceptively luxurious thanks to the addition of potato, which adds a natural creaminess. Serve with a crusty sourdough loaf or some thick slices of buttered toast.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 lemongrass stalk, tough outer peel removed, inner portion smashed, optional
1 (3-inch) piece ginger, peeled and grated (about 2 tablespoons)
1 medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 medium russet potato, peeled and diced
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
6 cups vegetable or chicken stock
4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
2 limes, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon honey
Salt

Steps:

  • In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium. Add the lemongrass and half the ginger and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, potato and garlic, then add the stock. Bring to a boil over high, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon ginger with the scallions, cilantro, vinegar, lime zest and juice, honey and the remaining 1/4 cup grapeseed oil. Whisk together and season with salt. Set aside. The relish will marinate and the scallions soften as it sits.
  • Remove and discard the lemongrass stalk from the soup. Using an immersion blender (or working in batches in a traditional blender), purée the soup until smooth. Add additional water, if needed, to thin the soup. Season to taste with salt.
  • Serve the soup topped with the ginger-scallion relish, and serve with a slice of buttered toast.
