Notes
Mo’s tip: You could use dried herbs in place of the basil if preferred.
I like to skin and deseed the tomato before weighing – it is a bit fiddly but
worth it.
It is easy to make this a vegan dish by using vegan cheese, but you may
need to adjust the values according to the brand you use.
Ingredients
- 70g Cauliflower
- 10g Onion
- 2g Fresh basil
- 12g Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
- 25g Olive oil
- 30g Mushroom
- 33g Tomato
- You will also need a little vegetable stock made with ¼ of a KNORR stock cube and 2g of GIA garlic paste.
Instructions
- First grate the cauliflower to make rice, then weigh it.
- Chop the onion, tomato, basil and mushrooms, I kept 3 basil leaves to use for serving but this is optional.
- Heat the oil and fry the onion gently until soft, then add the mushrooms and garlic puree, cook for 1 minute.
- Add the cauliflower rice and stir fry for 1 minute, then add the chopped tomatoes and just enough stock to moisten, cook for another minute. I found 15mls of stock to be enough.
- Add the basil and half the grated Parmigiano cheese, stir until it has melted.
- Serve topped with remaining cheese and the basil leaves.
