Butter Cauliflower has quickly made it to my favorite list. The combination of spices, tomatoes, curry and butter created a delightful melody in my mouth. So if you’re vegan or trying to incorporate more veggies in your life, this one is a must! I made this dish for my mother’s 83rd birthday party and it was a hit! She LOVED it! This is my own take on this beautiful dish.

COCONUT MILK
It was a huge game changer when I started cooking with coconut milk. My mom is from Jamaica and she almost always added it to her rice and peas. Coconut milk makes the sauce creamy and delicious. So adding it to sauces really elevates the flavors to so many of my recipes.
