Can you make this in a slow cooker?

Hi Cari - I haven't tried this recipe in a slow cooker, but you totally could. I would recommend putting all of the ingredients in on a low setting until the cauliflower is tender. If you try it, please tell me how it comes out for you.

This looks and sounds so good. I like cauliflower intensely, as well as many other wonderful veggies, and I would also add sautéed parsnips to this recipe. It should work really well in this delectable recipe!

Made this. Looks just lovely, but it's a little bland. I served it over rice and added two teaspoons more curry powder. It was very filling though!

Hi Linda - I'm glad you kicked it up a notch and it was filling for you! Sometimes all it needs is a little more salt to bring out those flavors.
