Curried Cauliflower and Cashew Casserole

Recipe #290481 | 55 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Alyssa #3

I found this recipe in an "Ultimate Casseroles" cookbook that I picked up over the weekend. It quick and easy and really delicious. I'm typing by memory, but I think this is an accurate reflection of the recipe.

Ingredients

  • medium cauliflower, florets separated
  • 1/2 cup water
  • tablespoons butter, divided
  • tablespoons flour
  • tablespoon curry
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • salt and pepper
  • 3/4 cup cashew, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Preheat oven to 350* and grease a 1.5 qt casserole dish.
    2. 2
      Microwave cauliflower with water and nuke for 4 minutes. Drain. You could also steam the cauliflower if you choose.
    3. 3
      In a small saucepan, melt 2 tbs of the butter. Stir in flour and curry and cook for about 2 minutes. It will make a thick paste. Whisk in milk and cook a few minutes, whisking periodically until the lumps disappear and the sauce starts to thicken. Season with salt and pepper.
    4. 4
      Put cauliflower in casserole and toss with cashews. Stir in milk mixture to coat.
    5. 5
      Sprinkle top with breadcrumbs and dot with the remaining butter.
    6. 6
      Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
    7. 7
      Garnish with more cashews if desired.

    I was amazed that my 3 year old gobbled this down for his dinner quite happily. I didn't have cashews, but had blanched almonds in the cupboard and they worked fine. Also, we don't have standard curry, so I used a teaspoon each of cumin and ground coriander, along with some marsala paste. I also added some parmesan to the breadcrumbs. Its the tastiest way I've found to cook cauliflower. Thanks for the recipe.
