Spiced Stir-fried Lebanese Cauliflower

                                               Spiced Stir-fried  Lebanese Cauliflower

Cauliflower has to be one of the most versatile of vegetables even though most folk tend to just boil it and maybe add some cheese sauce to it.  Recently I've been trying out several new recipes that I've come across along the way... Cauliflower rice for instance ... what a revelation especially if you're on a low carb diet... fabulous served with curries. You'll also find my Roasted Cauliflower Tikka recipe on my blog,( Roasted Cauliflower Tikka)  it's wonderful served as a side dish or even on it's own.  Of course there's also the traditional Cauliflower Cheese recipe available here too if that's what you fancy ( Cauliflower Cheese) or finally try my Cauliflower & Broccoli Tempura a delicious starter or perfect served with drinks as a hot canape.
