Ingredients
It’s this easy
- Remove the cauliflower leaves and stem and place to one side
- Roughly chop the rest of the cauliflower into bits and place in a food processor until finely chopped (you may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your food processor). You can also use a cheese grater or chop finely with a knife
- Place the finely chopped cauliflower into a microwave dish with a lid and cook in the microwave for 5 minutes (the lid is needed to steam the cauliflower)
- While the cauliflower is cooking, finely chop the cauliflower leaves and stem, garlic, and spring onion
- Heat the olive oil in a large frypan over medium heat and add the cauliflower leaves and stem, garlic, and spring onion, plus the cumin seeds. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables are softened and starting to brown
- Add the microwaved cauliflower to the frypan and combine
- Take the frypan off the heat and transfer to a bowl.
- Stir through the currants and coriander before serving
Tweaks
- Spice it up by adding some chilli flakes or add pine nuts for some extra flavour and crunch
