Recreating a yummy dish that you've had on some travels is always fun as it brings back memories of good times. This one was a favourite on a trip to Fiji, and has again become a family favourite now at home!
Perfect with a nice cool drink as a snack or as a starter with friends. Here it is, ROAST CAULIFLOWER IN SPICY ZUCCHINI SAUCE.
Ingredients: 1/2 of a full fresh Cauliflower florets, handful of almond flakes or chopped almonds, chilli flakes, 1 tsp garlic paste, olive oil for roasting.
For the Zucchini Sauce: 1 Zucchini chopped, 1 onion diced, chilli flakes/dry red chillies, 1 tsp garlic paste, salt to taste.
Make: In a heavy bottom pan, put in a spoon of olive oil and heat up. Add chilli flakes and garlic paste, fry a little. Add almonds and Cauliflower florets, then roast nicely for about 10 minutes until golden brown. Do not over cook of the florets will soften.
In another dish to make the sauce, add a little olive oil to heat up. Put in chilli flakes, garlic paste and roast a little before adding onion. Next add in Zucchini, salt and mix well. Cover and cook for about 6 minutes until Zucchini is soft and cooked. Cool to room temperature then grind the whole mixture to a paste/sauce, only add a spoon of water if needed to grind.
In a serving platter, spoon the warm sauce and spread around nicely. Then carefully place the roasted Cauliflower florets on top of the sauce and finish with all the almonds on top. Garnish with fresh parsley/chives/coriander as desired.
Enjoy the delicious and healthy treat!
