Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of canola or coconut oil over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to shimmer for about 1 minute before adding 1 sliced onion. Sauté the onion for 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and fragrant.

- Pour in 1 cup of vegetable broth, 2 cans of coconut milk, and a 15 oz can of fire-roasted tomatoes. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes.
- Add 1 small head of cauliflower, chopped into florets, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
- Gradually stir in 5 oz of baby spinach, allowing each portion to wilt before adding more. Finish with the juice of 1 large lime and adjust seasoning with salt or vegan ‘fish’ sauce.
- Spoon the curry over 3 cups of cooked jasmine rice and garnish with 1/2 cup of fresh Thai basil leaves.
