Ingredients

  • Cauliflower - 1 medium head, cut into florets
  • Coconut milk - 200 ml
  • Curry powder - 2 tablespoons
  • Barbecue sauce - 100 ml (dairy-free)
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
  • Lime juice - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
  • Fresh cilantro - for garnish

Steps

  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat (about 180°C / 350°F).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the coconut milk, curry powder, garlic, ginger, lime juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  3. Add the cauliflower florets to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  4. Thread the marinated cauliflower onto skewers (if using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning).
  5. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender and slightly charred.
  6. During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the cauliflower with the barbecue sauce.
  7. Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
