Vegetable side dishes, soups, stir-fries and raw with dips or salads.
Selection:
Choose a clean white head with firm tight clusters heavy for their size. The leaves should be fresh and green.
Storage:
In an airtight bag in refrigerator crisper.
Cooking:
Boil or steam florets with a chunk of lemon for 4-5 minutes until tender. The lemon helps alleviate the smell and keeps the cauliflower white. Microwave florets in a covered dish with 2 tablespoons water on HIGH (100%) for 5-6 minutes, stirring after 3 minutes to ensure even cooking.
Serving suggestion:
Serve cooked cauliflower with cheesy sauce or topped with a little low-fat natural yoghurt and sprinkled with ground cumin, paprika and crushed coriander seeds or chopped fresh coriander.
