I just love curry.
Making curry is one of my most favourite and relaxing things to do. Building up the flavours as I go along and creating the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and spicy, to me, is an almost spiritual creative-release. Not only because of the intricate layering of flavours, and the intoxicating aromas, but because with each chop of the blade and sprinkle of spice, I allow my mind to wander, peacefully, to uncharted territories.
Something as beautiful as the perfect curry, dolloped with a cooling mound of thick yoghurt and fresh sprigs of tangy coriander, deserves the perfect accompaniment – whether you are mopping up the juices or wanting to house the curry in a “bread-like” cocoon, for the ultimate spicy sandwich.
Once again, the versatile cauliflower allows for such an accompaniment – the low carb cauli-roti!
Low Carb Cauli-Roti (Makes 2)
Ingredients:
1 Cup Cooked “Cauli Snow”
1 Large Egg
2 Tbs Psyllium Husks
2 Tbs Coconut Flour
½ tsp Salt
½ tsp Cumin Seeds
Method:
To make “cauli snow”: Cook cauliflower florets until soft; pulse in a magimix until fine; transfer mixture to a tea towel, wrap tightly and squeeze out all the liquid.
Transfer “cauli snow” back to magimix, add all ingredients, except the cumin seeds, and mix until dough-like.
Add cumin seeds and mix into a “dough ball”.
Divide dough in half and roll each piece between two sheets of baking paper, dusted with coconut flour.
Cut out a round shape by placing a side plate on top of the rolled out dough and tracing around it.
Place roti into a hot, dry pan and cook on either side until golden brown.
Serve with filling of your choice.
