CAULIFLOWER POWER

’m probably as well known for losing loads of weight as I am for being an award-winning chef, which is fine by me. If anyone takes inspiration from that part of my food journey and eats healthier then that can only be a good thing. So, when it comes to new year’s food resolutions or just generally tweaking the way you eat a little, here’s my advice: don’t just overhaul what you eat because you think you should. Take it one meal at a time and stick. Firstly, who doesn’t love curry? And this one is meat-free, but still very filling from the chickpeas, and rich and comforting from the coconut milk. It’s easily adapted and there’s enough going on that it can be eaten simply with rice, or dressed up with a few extra bits to serve to friends. January can feel like a tough month, but eating well helps, and this is my go-to recipe for that. Roasting the cauliflower intensifies its flavour, but if you don’t fancy turning the oven on, it can just as easily be fried.
