So when I saw this post for beef curry by cavegirl Tiffany (it's a paleo diet thing), I had to try it. Trouble is, I had almost none of the ingredients, at least the ingredients that mattered (give me a break, I'm new to paleo!) But I did try the cauliflower rice thing from *another* cavegirl recipe that was linked from that post to their other post for Korean BBQ, which you have to find toward the very end of the post (third paragraph from the bottom). Did you miss it?? Yeah, I had to read the post a couple of times to find it, so I'll just quote it here:
Serve with your choice of vegetable or cauliflower rice. I simmered finely chopped cauliflower in a shallow pan with about 1/2 cup of chicken stock, teaspoon onion flakes and garlic powder until the stock cooked off. This created more of a "white rice" versus our fried rice recipe.
Sooo simple, and just so happens... I was at the Lancaster Farmer's Market last Thursday, and found a vendor selling heads of cauliflower. I bought one just to go with this recipe :) And BTW, I wish the cavegirls would quit posting such awesome sounding food... I might have to try it all!
Annnnyway... curry, yeah, that's where I'm going with this... So I have boneless, skinless chicken thighs, some carrots, a sweet potato (more paleo than a regular potato, aparently... plus... farmer's market again), a large white onion, about 4 garlic cloves, 2 jalapenos, some left over zucchini (from those zucchini fries I made, yum!) and some Golden Curry (because I'm lazy, and it's pretty good). And damn, I forgot the eggplant I got from someone at work (thanks, Michelle!) and the mushrooms! I had to cook those separate and add in at the end.
Bummer! I'll have to cook these separate and add to the finished product... |

So that's it... overall, pretty yummy! Actually, I had to have a bowl in the middle of writing this ;)
Curry was a little runny, but delish! |
