So, this came about as a bit of an accident, but then some of the best things are - Penicillin, Post-It Notes, Teflon? Anyway, I set out to make curried cauliflower soup, to use up half a head I had in the fridge and thought I would experiment. I chopped the cauliflower up, with an onion and three fat cloves of garlic and roasted with generous pinches of curry powder. Skip forward to tasting, seasoning and eventually eating and the garlic flavour had wrestled itself to the fore and was bloody delicious. The cauliflower giving a luxe creamy taste whilst the curry powder gave a lovely kick.
Sometimes, I don't mind if things don't always go quite to plan in the kitchen...
