Over the years, I’ve been sent a bunch of cookbooks and I’ve probably turned down many times the number that I’ve been sent just because I can’t read them all!
Anytime I get an offer to check out a new America’s Test Kitchen cookbook though, I always jump at the chance. They write unbelievable cookbooks that combine all of my favorite things: good recipes, excellent photos, and easy-to-understand instructions.
Their latest book, The Cooking School Cookbook, is maybe their best so far. I made this Cauliflower Vegetarian Curry from it a few weeks ago and it was one of the better curries I’ve ever had. Check out the recipe and also see how you can win a copy of this awesome book!
Cauliflower Vegetable Curry

Cauliflower Vegetarian Curry
Toasting the Curry
This Cauliflower Vegetarian Curry recipe is actually not hard to make and it all comes together in a single pot which is great. There are a few tricks though to really amp up the flavors in the dish.
Trick number one is to toast the spices, both the curry powder and the garam masala. You can do this in a dry skillet over medium heat and just toast them for a few minutes until they are really fragrant.
Starting the Curry
To kick off the cooking for the actual curry, it’s important to cook the veggies in two groups. Group one is the onions and potatoes. You want to cook these first in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat for about 8-10 minutes so they brown nicely. While the original recipe used vegetable oil to cook in, I used coconut oil to give it some extra flavor.
Once the potatoes and onions are getting nicely browned, make a well in the center of your pot and add the garlic, chiles, and ginger to the center. If the pan is dry, add a bit more oil to the pan. These aromatics will only need to cook for thirty seconds or so.
Then add the toasted curry powder and the tomato paste. It will almost look like the stuff is burning at this point, but it’s really just developing a lot of excellent flavor. Let it cook for another 30-60 seconds like this. It should be a deep, almost orange color.
Ideally, you should add the cauliflower at this point and let that get nicely coated with the curry spices.
I have an inability to follow instructions perfectly so I added the cauliflower along with the diced tomatoes (you should puree the tomatoes if you can), water, and chickpeas.
Stir this all together, bring it to a simmer, then cover it and reduce heat to medium. Let the curry simmer for 10 minutes or so until the cauliflower and potatoes are tender.
Then stir in the peas and coconut cream and season the pot with salt.
This Cauliflower Vegetarian Curry is ready to serve!
This is a completely filling curry. I served mine over rice, but you could also serve this Cauliflower Vegetarian Curry with flat bread. It’ll make your house smell amazing and leftovers reheat wonderfully.
Quick Review and Giveaway!
There are certain cookbooks that are just instant classics and I think this may be one of those books. It has over 600 recipes. Each recipe isn’t overly fancy and is completely perfected by the team of test kitchen cooks that try out the recipes. Most recipes are accompanied not only with ingredients and directions, but also step-by-step photos (the above spread is for the veggie curry I made) and a list of things that can go wrong and tips to prevent them.
I’ve never been to cooking school, but I do imagine that many of the techniques and secrets learned there are similar to the stuff in this book. If you are a beginner to intermediate cook, I think this would be a great cookbook to add to your shelves.
I’m giving away two copies of this book because I like it so much! All you have to do to enter is leave a comment below with what cooking technique you would like to learn!
I’ll pick two winners at random a week from today, Monday November 11th!
Winners Update!
The two winners of the cookbook giveaway are Jamie and Lynn! Congrats!

I’ll definitely be trying that curry! I’d love to learn their take on how to stir-fry properly!
Miranda
That curry looks perfect for dinner tonight, thank you! I would love to learn proper rice techniques – I want to be able to do more than depend on my rice cooker :-)
Flora
That curry looks mouthwatering.
Making pie crust is one skill that eludes me. I’d like to learn to make a proper pie crust.
charj
I would really like to learn how to make good hash,
Kimberly
I would love to learn how to make sauteed dishes better!

Brandy
I would love to learn how to make tortillas!
Rob
Good knife skills. I hope that counts.
Jessica L.
I’d love to learn a little more about baking with yeast. I’ve done a lot of practicing, but I just can’t seem to nail it!
Merry
I would really like to know more about making good reductions and glazes….there is a tiny slopeside restaurant here that makes the most amazing margherita flatbread and the secret is all in the balsamic reduction.
Grey
I avoid anything that calls for a rolling pin but would like to learn.
Tamar Erlich
The technique I most want to master is working with chocolate and sugar
Kelly
Everything? If I had to pick…I’d like to learn more about using spices and herbs.

Susan
Would like to learn how to work with a candy thermometer to make toffees and the like for Christmas !

Bina
I’d love to learn how to cook with pork. As a student, I tend to cook more vegetarian food since meats take more planning, but am looking to learn to cook a variety of proteins.
Thanks for this giveaway! I love the test kitchen series.

I want to learn how to bake better. Stupid exact sciences!!
Emily
Melding spices with appropriate and interesting other ingredients.
Gerry @ Foodness Gracious
Cooking curries are a labor of love but soooo worth it, I could eat em’ all day long :)
Brendan
I’d like to learn more about dough making. How much kneading, rises, etc. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. I don’t like relying on luck and I hate being tied to a recipe. Especially since baking is more scientific and can be affected by things like humidity, altitude, barometric pressure, slight differences in ingredients, etc. I’d like to be able to develop a “feel” for it so that when I’m following a recipe, I know how much kneading to do when it says to knead, and what adjustments, if any, I should make, etc.
Daphne
I’d like to learn how to make croissants.
CGCouture
Ooh! I love watching the show on TV, but I’ve never paged through/bought one of their books before. I don’t know if it’s a technique issue or what, but I fail at making biscuits every single time. :-( It doesn’t matter how big and fluffy they come out for everyone else, mine are always hockey pucks. Those and pie crusts are my two guaranteed to fail foods. Thanks for the chance to win!
Whit
Despite my rather solid baking efforts, I somehow still manage to utterly fail at icing cupcakes. I blame my complete lack of artistic skill (and patience). I’m not going to be satisfied until I learn how to make at least a passably good-looking iced cupcake. :)
Linda
I would love to learn how to make a good paella!
margie s
Better vegetarian. Mine always seems bland – I will start with the curry.

I’d really like to learn how to poach an egg perfectly. I know this is supposed to be a really easy thing to do, and I’ve managed to poach eggs before, but I don’t feel like I’ve actually ever done it really WELL.

Katie
I would want to get better at using my knives

Frosting cakes. I can make a good tasting cake, but not a professional looking one.

I am intimated by yeast. Had a bad experience years ago and thought my whole dining room was going to be eaten up by some blob that was spreading all over the dining room table. We were trying to make zappole for a school fair, made the dough and left it on the table until time to cook. What a nightmare… Have never made anything with yeast again.

I made this recipe for the first time a few years ago when it appeared in Cooks Illustrated. It has become my stand-by – hands down the best curry recipe I’ve found, and very easy to make. And yes, toasting the spices fills your kitchen with an amazing, exotic perfume. Really wonderful.
Joseph
How to make proper dough in any or all of its many forms. I keep trying and trying and trying and I can never, EVER seem to get my dough to rise or behave in any way that recipes suggest that they should. *sad trombone*

I am an Indonesian. I have been learning to cook and to bake since I moved to America a year ago. I have seen many processed food in the store that really surprised me, but I prefer to make everything by myself, so I really need to learn a lot more how to cook in western way since I wasn’t used to grill or to bake (I got to admit, the food from my country mostly deep fried) and I would like to learn how to make Indonesian dish by cooking it in western way. By the way in my country we call “curry” as “kare” :), and I always love it.
