HERE’S WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO LOVE ABOUT THIS COD & CAULIFLOWER CURRY
-
Easy
-
Comforting
-
Adaptable
-
Perfectly spiced
-
Gluten & Dairy Free
Using these ingredients you’ll either have already or can easily get from most supermarkets.
This cod curry is packed with flavour from the aromatic ginger and garlic and the blend of spices – paprika, ground coriander, turmeric, fennel seeds and chilli flakes.
Easy swaps to try:
- Use salmon, haddock or prawns instead of the cod
- Try broccoli instead of the cauliflower
- Nut allergy? Leave the peanut butter out
- Make it vegan – swap the cod for tofu or just have the cauliflower
- For a smooth sauce use passata instead of chopped tomatoes and use smooth peanut butter
Firstly, make the curry sauce – cook the onion, garlic, ginger and spices.
Add the lime juice, coconut milk, chopped tomatoes and peanut butter.
Meanwhile, stir in the bite-sized cauliflower florets and simmer for 10 minutes.
Eventually add in the cubes of cod, cover and gently simmer for 5 minutes.
If you’re using spinach, stir this in with the cod, too.
Despite this sauce being dairy-free, it has such a rich and creamy texture making it extremely comforting.
I like to serve the curry sprinkled with chopped fresh coriander and lime wedges, to squeeze over, for an extra zingy flavour!
SO IF YOU TRY THIS COD & CAULIFLOWER CURRY LET ME KNOW!
If you have any curry left over, set it aside to cool, then pop it into an airtight lidded container and store in the fridge for a couple of days. Reheat thoroughly to serve.

First time following one of your recipes and I was blown away! Easy to follow and incredibly tasty; really impressed with the naan breads too
Thank you!
Thanks Lauren 🙂 so pleased you enjoyed it!
Slam dunk!
This recipe needed more salt than I’m used to using BUT next time I’ll supplement with miso paste (for a healthier alternative to salt) and maybe kick up some of the lime + spices.
I used carton coconut milk and whole marzano canned tomatoes for a brothier, lighter curry.
I also made your GF naan and I was totally blown away. I added ground coriander, ground garlic, and fresh garlic and used tahini instead of olive oil. Topped with melted butter, flake salt, and fresh cilantro. Delicious!
Amazing recipes! I didn’t feel like I have ever made a good curry over here in the states until now. Thank you, James!
Thanks for the great review Emilie 🙂 glad you enjoyed them both!
Cod & Cauliflower Curry: another super easy meal to make, served with rice & your Nann Breads. Thanks James you inspire others to try something different.
That’s awesome thank you Carolyn 🙂
Eating this as I type and it’s so delicious. I replaced the cod pieces with Quorn chicken pieces and it’s just as good. I added a bit more chili flakes too for a kick and it’s really nice. This was so simple and quick to make and I’ll definitely be making it again!
I made this minus the cod but added chickpeas instead and It was delicious.
Thanks Debbie 🙂 glad you enjoyed it!
