This week I was given the opportunity to be part of the InstaWean Team. Every week, a group of 9 mummas and one guest account get given an ingredient and they all have to make something yummy with that ingredient. They've done Brussel sprouts and asparagus so far. This week was cauliflower so this was the ingredient I had to use.
I chose to do cauliflower dippers. They sound vile but they were really nice! It surprised me how nice they were and the great thing was, the cauliflower wasn't visible so children (or adults) who don't like cauliflower wouldn't know it was in there. The cheese and herbs overpower it (in a good way!)
Anyway, here's the recipe...
You will need:
1 cauliflower
1 beaten egg
1 tsp mixed herbs
1/2 tsp garlic salt
Handful of grated cheese
Preheat the oven to 220 degrees c or 425 degrees f.
Chop the cauliflower head into chunks, removing the core. Add the chunks to a food processor and blitz until it resembles rice.
Heat an inch of water in a pan and when it's boiling, add the cauliflower chunks and steam (with a lid on the pan) for about 5 mins.
Drain and when it's cool enough, put it inside a clean tea towel. Gather up the corners of the tea towel and squeeze all the liquid out you can.
Add the cauliflower to a bowl with all the other ingredients and half the cheese. Mix well.
Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and spread the mixture into a rectangle.
Bake for 30 mins or until it's a golden brown.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top and bake for another 10 mins until it's melted.
Cut into strips and serve with your favourite dip!
I had a lot of fun participating in this challenge and I'll definitely be taking part in future challenges at home!
Until next time
