This is a deliciously light cauliflower dish that it is both easy and quick to make.<\/p>\n

Cauliflower is one of my favourite vegetables and I love cauliflower rice IF it is rammed with goodies rather than being insipid which cauliflower rice can be (ie: cauliflower and little else!). The idea here is that every bite gives exciting flavours and textures.<\/p>\n

I lightly saut\u00e9 the cauliflower which not only cooks it slightly without it going mushy, it enhances the flavour where some of the cauliflower takes on a lovely toasty tinge. You can, however, steam it until it is cooked to your liking.<\/p>\n

This is a great salad dish by itself, and it at its best when served at room temperature. However, it is also ideal as a bed on which roasted chicken thighs*, pan-fried halloumi, kebabs or cooked salmon fillets can sit. I also love to serve it alongside a tagine.<\/p>\n

*for delicious chicken thighs, mix 2-3 teaspoons harissa powder with the juice and finely grated zest of a lime and 1 tablespoon honey. Spoon over 4 boned chicken thighs (skin on or off) and roast at 190\u00b0C for about 25-30 minutes.<\/em><\/p>\n

You can vary the ingredients depending on what you have. I sometimes add any of the following: chopped up dried apricots, chickpeas, diced cucumbers, diced peppers, toasted almonds.<\/p>\n
