Roasted Curried Cauliflower with Pomegranate
Happy 2012! Overall, 2011 was an amazing year for me. I married the love of my life, took a honeymoon to paradise, began teaching monthly cooking classes, and launched this blog.
Last January I had a pretty clear idea of what 2011 would hold. 2012 still feels like a mystery. I have tons of goals and some pretty big projects in the oven (pun intended) but a lot still feels unknown- and I love that.
For my first recipe of the New Year I wanted to share a very simple, yet incredibly satisfying dish. I made this as part of Christmas Eve dinner and have enjoyed it several times since. The spiciness of the curry mixed with the sweet/tart of the pomegranates is a perfect pairing in my book. The best part is, you can make a large batch for dinner and enjoy the leftovers over a salad the next day!
