Making The Curry Sauce

Ingredients:

•1/2 brown onion
•1 clove garlic
•1 tablespoon ginger
•1/2 serrano chilli (stem and seeds removed)
•1 to 2 tablespoon unsalted curry powder
•1 box of organic chicken stock
•1 cup of chopped cauliflower

Method:

1. Place the onion, garlic, ginger and chilli in a food processor and blend until you have a paste.
2. Heat a medium-size stock pot over med-hi heat. Add paste and 1 to 2 tablespoons of broth to sauté paste until it starts to brown. Add more chicken stock little by little if the paste is browning too fast or starting to burn.
3. Once the paste is cooked, add the curry powder and another splash of chicken stock. Cook for another minute, stirring the mixture so that it doesn’t burn.
4. Add the rest of the chicken stock and the cauliflower. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes or so, until cauliflower is tender.
5. Transfer to a blender and puree until sauce is smooth. Always start blender on lowest speed when you are blending hot food, otherwise it will explode all over the kitchen. You can add water or more broth if sauce is too thick.
6. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding salt or coconut milk for sweetness.
