Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower leaves and stalk removed, chopped into florets, large
- 14 oz prawns peeled, tails intact, or shrimp
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic crushed
- ½ medium lemon juiced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil coconut oil
- 1 cup cream
- ¼ cup white wine dry
- ⅓ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- ½ teaspoon salt about 1-2 teaspoons, to taste
- 2 tablespoons parsley finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon black pepper cracked
- lemon wedges to serve
Instructions
- In a blender (or food processor) add 1 cup of cauliflower florets at a time (working in batches) and pulse each batch quickly about 3-5 times or until the cauliflower is the same consistency of rice. Transfer to a large bowl and repeat with remaining cauliflower until all done.
- Melt butter in a large pan or skillet over medium heat. Add prawns (shrimp) and sear them while stirring them occasionally until they just start to change in colour. Add garlic and lemon juice and fry for an additional minute. Add the oil and the cauliflower 'rice' to the pan, and fry for a few minutes until glossy and coated in all of the pan flavours. Stir through the cream, wine and cheese. Season with salt; reduce heat to low, cover the pan and cook while stirring occasionally until cauliflower is creamy and tender (about 6-8 minutes).
- Serve with parsley, pepper, lemon wedges and top with additional cheese if you like.
Notes
- Fresh or frozen shrimp can be used for the recipe.
