David's Creamy Raw Curry and ryce

This is a very easy raw curry to make and tastes great. Just use the ingredient list as a guide and adjust to taste for heat and mildness.

Serves 2-4.

Ingredients:
3 ripe tomatoes
2 red pepper
1 or 2 sticks of celery
1 avocado
2 dates (more if you like sweetness)
Small handfull of fresh corriander (dried is fine too)
1-3 teaspoons of organic curry powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 table
1/2 cup water
1 or 2 garlic cloves
Glug of oil (cold pressed olive, seasame, hemp)
Mixed sprouts (lentil, mung, azuki work well here)

For the rice:
1/2 a cauliflower
Handful or corriander
Juice of one lime


Method
Chop the tomatoes whole and add them to blender.
Chop up the red pepper and add helf to the blend, keeping half back.
Chop up celery and add half to blender, keeping hald back.
Add salt, dates, corriander, garlic and spices to the blender.
Add half a cup of water and blend to a liquid.
Now add the avocado and blend again for 5-10 seconds (you don't want to over-blend avocado)
Add the rest of the pepper, celery and the spouts to the blender and pulse a little to mix but don't liquidise! You want some texture.

For the rice pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until it's about the texture of cooked rice.
Squeeze a lime over the cauliflower, add olive oil, rock salt and chopped corriander.

Serve curry style!

Note: Sweeten with more dates or heat up with more spice if that's your thing.
