Cut the cauliflower into small florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. Set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chickpea flour, water, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt until smooth. This will be the base for the curry sauce.
Finely chop the ginger, garlic, and green chili.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and mustard seeds and let them crackle for about 30 seconds.
Add chopped ginger, garlic, green chili, and curry leaves to the pan. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour the yogurt mixture into the pan, stirring continuously to prevent curdling. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for approximately 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the sauce simmers, steam or microwave the riced cauliflower until tender, about 4-5 minutes. Be careful not to overcook as it can become mushy.
Once the curry has thickened slightly, adjust seasoning to taste with additional salt if necessary.
Serve the curry over the riced cauliflower and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
Enjoy your Keto Kari Chawal, a delicious low-carb twist on a classic dish!
