For years now, one of my favorite quickie recipes has been a flavorful but utterly simple cauliflower curry that requires just a minimum of ingredients. The cauliflower goes into a tomato sauce that, together with some turmeric, creates a glorious orange color. But this time I thought, why not substitute the cauliflower with beans? So in went some lima beans, those creamy, buttery, flavorful little nuggets that I simply adore in dishes like Greek Gigantes. The result was quite wonderful. I guess one could use both cauliflower and limas, and I might just try it that way the next time I make this dish. Check to get new recipe updates by email.

So here’s this glorious, gorgeous but super-easy dish that will have you coming back for seconds, and thirds.
