RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

1. 800 grs cauliflower florets (only the florets)

2. 1 finely diced yellow onion

3. 2  tbsp  coconut oil 

4. 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil

5. 2 tbsp lime juice and its zest (ideally organic)

6. 2 to 3 tbsp grated fresh ginger (adjust to taste)

7. 2 chopped garlic cloves

8. 1 tsp turmeric

9. 1 tbsp soy sauce (or coconut aminos for GF option)

10. To top: 1,5 tbsp grated coconut + 1 kafir lime finely shredded and salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Pulse your cauliflower florets in your thermomix until you get a texture similar to couscous.

2. Steam it for 7 min, and drain thoroughly (I use a cheese cloth) when cooled down, to remove all water.

3. Heat at medium heat your pan, add the coconut oil, then the onions, and after 5 min your garlic, ginger and turmeric. Stir well all along for an extra min.

4. Add the cauliflower, cook for 1/2 min, and finish with the soy sauce, lime and sesame oil, and stir again.

5. Transfer to a bowl and top with your grated coconut and kafir lime and serve

Note: you can add a few chili flakes when you add the ginger and turmeric, if you want it a little spicy

You can eat it warm of cold and add some pomegranate, roasted almond flakes, diced cucumber and feta (or marinated tofu if vegan) to have it as a salad.
