The often misunderstood Cauliflower has very similar properties to broccoli, sprouts and cabbage.

Try to eat as raw as possible or lightly cook.

Conversely, cook as I like to thus:

A quick and “superfood – packed” recipe for when cooking is just another stress on top of everything else………

• Pre heat an available oven to somewhere around 180°C (350F)(Gas Mark 4)
  
• Par boil (10 mins) or microwave (7-10 mins in a few drops of water) a ton, or thereabouts, of cauliflower and broccoli, whilst lightly frying a chopped mountain of white onions in a decent amount olive oil.
• Wash an oven dish.
• Throw half the onions into it and place the drained cauliflower on top of the onions, then creatively throw the rest of the onions of top of the cauliflower.
• Roughly chop a huge bunch of spring onions, at least one of each colour of bell pepper and some red onions and scatter the lot on top.
• Pour a jar of white sauce of some description over everything.
• Grate a good, yet sensibly priced, mature block of cheese and spread over the whole mixture.
• Top the cheese with mixed hot chilli flakes, mixed ground peppers and a sensible amount of cayenne pepper, depending on what mood you are in and the weather.
• Cover with aluminium foil and place wherever it will fit in the preheated oven.
• After about 20 minutes or so, remove the foil for 10 minutes.

Then remove from the oven, smell heartily, show off to guests and eat, with a deliciously large helping of meat of some description, obviously cooked around the same time. (Even great on its own !!!)

You now have, in the space of 40 minutes maximum, at least 12 fantastic ingredients (not counting the sauce) all in one quick and beautifully nutritious meal. I would have put a picture here, but I have eaten it all, it is that good !!!

If you have any left, just refrigerate and it is good for at least a couple of days.

Just slice yourself a portion and reheat in the microwave. You then have a 5 minute meal containing 12 wonderful ingredients !!!

Can it get any better?
