Instructions Cauliflower and chickpea curry

In a large frying pan, heat a tablespoon of oil. Add the onion cut into half moons and cook over low heat until it becomes soft and slightly translucent. Now add the ginger and garlic, both peeled and minced. Cook for another minute without letting them burn.
Combine cumin, turmeric, garam masala, hot pepper and half a teaspoon of salt. Stir and cook for another minute to make the spices become very aromatic.
Now add the diced tomatoes or peeled tomatoes. Mash well with a fork and bring to a boil. Cook for two minutes to mix the ingredients well, then turn off the heat and blend everything with an immersion blender or a vertical blender. Put the prepared cream back into the pan and turn the heat back on.
Add the broth, the coconut latre and the chickpeas. Finally, add the cauliflower divided into florets and cut into pieces the size of a teaspoon. Mix well and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until the sauce thickens and the cauliflower is tender.
Serve immediately sprinkled with chopped parsley. If you like the sour taste in the curry you can add a squeeze of lemon juice.
