| 2 | White sauce with lots of chopped parsley , or capers, or grated nutmeg are 3 variations I like. anna95 - 2013-10-25 16:42:00 |
| 3 | Steam or stirfry it and then top with some savory fresh bread crumbs that have some butter, herbs, garlic mixed with it and flashed under the grill until lighly browned. Also nice done the indian way with the chick pea flour batter and fried. Edited by karlymouse at 4:44 pm, Fri 25 Oct karlymouse - 2013-10-25 16:43:00 |

| 8 | Plenty of choices if you put cauliflower in l/h message board. Under date posted put last year. Roasted sounds worth trying tjman. Wouldn't take long? kassie48 - 2013-10-25 17:08:00 |

To make savoury breadcrumbs use dried breadcrumbs place in a dish with some garlic butter or plain butter and microwave on high for a minute then stir.....zap again on high for another minute and stir..breadcrumbs will be brown and golden add some grated cheese and add to the cauli flower and pop under griller to brown. petal1955 - 2013-10-25 17:23:00 |
| 10 | I steam it, then chuck in a blender with a dollop of sour cream, a smidgeon of crushed garlic, salt and pepper. Much nicer than mashed spuds. ed65 - 2013-10-25 17:26:00 |

I used to be like you. Try it steamed and mashed instead of potato but best of all roasted. This one is REALLY good. geldof - 2013-10-25 17:35:00 |
| 13 | Simple roasted cauli is great. Oven at 180C, for four servings use one large cauli cut into florets, trickle in 2 tab olive oil or melted butter, salt and pepper, tumble around to distribute the fat. Roast about an hour or until golden brown. davidt4 - 2013-10-25 19:45:00 |
| 14 | mmmmmmmmmm preboiled then battered and deep fried..yummo..dipt in cheese sauce.... purplegoanna - 2013-10-25 20:23:00 |
| 15 | I haven't tried this yet, but read in a hospitality magazine about using cooked cauliflower as the base for a pizza, I think from memory cheese was added to the mashed up cauliflower, it was precooked without topping 10-15 minutes then topping added... sounds interesting. karlymouse - 2013-10-25 22:03:00 |

| 17 | Agree roasted cauliflower is delicious. ...and this cauliflower sauce recipe is my #1 favourite when I want stodgy-comfort food, and is a good way to use up left-over vegetables. I mix it up with cooked green vegetables (silverbeet, leek, peas, broccoli, is a great combo) - top with cheese, and bake in the oven: http://cupcakesomg.blogspot.co.nz/2012/08/caulif-redo-sauce- Edited by mjhdeal at 6:14 am, Sat 26 Oct mjhdeal - 2013-10-26 06:05:00 |
| 18 | Stir fried, the cheese thing of course....chicken and cauli gougeres, and look up some of the indian recipes....for something different. lythande1 - 2013-10-26 07:14:00 |

| 22 | cauliflower and blue cheese soup is very tasty and cooking small pieces in milk/cream and then puree, is good too. using it raw with other raw veges with a dip is a different taste too. Edited by jobb at 9:16 am, Mon 28 Oct jobb - 2013-10-28 09:15:00 |

| 26 | Jamie Oliver did a normal cauliflower dish but the béchamel sauce had broccoli in it, then put in the blender so it was nice and green looking and looked yummy on the cauliflower, not that I like it lol. joybells2 - 2014-07-25 17:56:00 |

| 31 | My current favourite way with cauli is to roast it and dress with miso butter (made with half butter and half raw miso). davidt4 - 2015-07-21 17:43:00 |
| 32 | This looks good too: uli - 2015-07-21 21:05:00 |
| 33 | Delicious magazines`s whole roasted cauli with cheddar and spring onion sauce 1 large cauliflower head, trimmed For the sauce 01.Preheat the oven to 220°C/fan 200°C/gas 7. Put the cauliflower in a large pan with the 300ml wine, bay leaves, peppercorns and garlic halves. Pour over boiling water from the kettle to just cover the cauliflower – don’t worry if it floats – and simmer on the hob for 20 minutes, turning halfway through. Carefully lift the cauliflower out of the poaching liquid into a colander and leave for 10 minutes to steam dry (see tip). ruby19 - 2015-07-22 08:30:00 |
| 34 | Break cauli up into florets and then blitz in processor till it looks like rice or coarse couscous. Then use it to create a 'stirfry' with bacon (or prosciutto) diced onions, garlic, a bit of fresh chilli and finally a cup of baby peas. This is seriously delicious and you wouldn't know it was boring old cauliflower! Its a Nadia Lim recipe - and no, I don't think cauli is boring, one of my favourites in fact.

That looks like a jolly fine recipe and one that has been saved to my Recipes folder for future use. I don't have a microwave so will have to devise some other method of cooking the cauli crumbs. Uli, cauli were not that cheap here at the local market last week but here's hoping for a change for the better this week. The local growers are in hot competition with each other.

| 47 | samanya wrote: Lol. You don't like to amaze me. I get it. Now back to Recipes. I'll be trying your recommended link this weekend on the family to see how they like it. If it is any good I'll make it for grandie's birthday bash. Those little five year olds won't know they are eating vegetables. I have decided to put the cauliflower through my masticating juicer to get out liquid BEFORE cooking and lightly pan fry it. Hope it works out. In order to make it worth my while doing that I'll use a cauliflower the "size of my head" as Penny laughingly puts it and make some bases for freezing and use later. buzzy110 - 2015-07-24 10:39:00 |

| 49 | Thought you might want some ideas for all the leftover cauli juice buzzy - http://www.rawjuicecleanserecipes.com/cauliflower-juice-clea Loads of cauli ideas here - http://www.rebootwithjoe.com/tag/cauliflower-2/ Cauliflower and potato makes a nice vegetarian curry, I've made this often for my son. Barkers do a Spiced Eggplant Chutney that goes well with it (that seems a bit of a random comment but I tried it out cause I had some and some left over C&P curry and the two just seemed to 'go' together).

| 50 | Thanks Samanya. I too have been wanting to try out cauliflower pizza crust and your feedback on that recipe makes it the one to try, especially with the moisture hint. My kids have been whingeing for pizza but I have been low carb ing and not keen to go there. I never cooked Cauli for years as DH put me off it by making very bad cauli cheese where he would inevitably forget to drain the water before adding tasteless cheese sauce.. He buys colby and expects that to add flavour. Anyway going low carb has reignited my interest in Cauli and this thread is great! wendalls - 2015-07-24 13:07:00 |
