Ingredients

4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1 medium onion
4 clove garlic
2 tsp. turmeric
2 tsp. garam masala
1 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. coriander
3 cups chicken broth
2 cups cauliflower florets
1 can coconut milk
4 cups shredded cooked chicken
2 cups bias-sliced fresh okra
1 cup fresh or frozen peas
1 tsp. salt
2 cups cooked long-grain white rice
2 Thai chiles

Directions

1. Step 1In a stockpot over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onion and garlic, and sauté until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add spices and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broth, cauliflower, and coconut milk, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until cauliflower is tender, 12 to 18 minutes. Add chicken, okra, peas, and salt, and stir. Simmer until okra is just tender but still bright green, about 10 minutes.
2. Step 2Serve curry with rice, and garnish with chiles, if you like.
