    6. Comments: For this recipe, treat yourself to the regular coconut lowfat milk rather than the reduced-fat version - it's luscious and flavorful. Cauliflower is too dense and thick a vegetable to cook properly in a wok from raw, so it's precooked first. Serve this curry with steamed basmati rice or possibly toasted chapati or possibly pita bread to catch all the savory sauce.
