Ingredients
- ¼ cup raw cashews
- 4 tablespoons sunflower or grapeseed oil , divided
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder , divided
- 1 head cauliflower , cut into small florets
- 2 yellow potatoes , diced
- 2 carrots , peeled and sliced into ½-inch thick rounds
- 3 Roma tomatoes , quartered
- 1 red onion , quartered
- 6 cloves garlic , peeled
- 1- inch piece of ginger , peeled
- 1 serrano pepper
- ½ teaspoon kosher or fine sea salt
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 dried chili de árbol
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- ½ teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup water
- ½ teaspoon garam masala
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro , roughly chopped
Instructions
- Place the cashews in a small bowl or jar and cover with boiling water. Soak for at least 15 minutes, until the cashews have softened.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Combine 1 tablespoon sunflower oil and ½ teaspoon ground turmeric together in a large mixing bowl. Add the cauliflower, potatoes, and carrots to the bowl and toss until well coated.
- Spread the vegetables out on a large baking sheet and transfer it to the oven. Roast, stirring occa-sionally, until the vegetables are just tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, drain the cashews and place them in a high-speed blender or food processor. Add the tomatoes, red onion, garlic, ginger, serrano chili, and sea salt. Puree on high speed until smooth.
- Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin seeds to the oil and cook until they are fragrant and start to sizzle, about 2 minutes, then add the dried chili and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Pour the cashew/tomato mixture into the skillet and mix in the paprika, coriander, and remaining ½ teaspoon turmeric powder. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture starts to thicken and darken, about 8-10 minutes.
- Stir in the roasted vegetables and frozen peas, then pour in the water. Cover the pan and simmer for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the peas are cooked through.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle in the garam masala, add more sea salt to taste, and garnish with cilantro.
