INGREDIENTS:
- 1 large head cauliflower, broken into florets
- 2 large carrots, chopped
- 2 tablespoons expeller or virgin coconut oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon unbleached all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine
- 1 (15.5 ounce) can black beans or chickpeas
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
DIRECTIONS:
- Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan with 1/2 inch of water. Place the cauliflower and carrots in the steamer. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, or until tender. Place in a bowl and keep warm. Rinse and dry the saucepan.
- Heat the oil in the same saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, ginger, and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for 3 minutes, or until soft.
- In a cup, combine the flour and curry powder. Add to the saucepan and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
- Gradually stir in the broth and wine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes, or until the sauce is lightly thickened.
- Add the beans or chickpeas and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes, or until heated through. Add to the vegetables in the bowl and toss gently just until combined.
Sprinkle with the cilantro or parsley.
