yum yum yum yum. This recipe is so easy and can actually be made with any vegetable (broccoli, squash, yams, green beans, chard). The sauce can be made on its own, then top on your veggie of choice.
Here is how I do it with cauliflower.
Almond Meal Sauce (this is a very basic recipe that could be more diverse with spices)
1/2 cup Barlean's Coconut Oil or butter or ghee
4-5 cloves of garlic (chopped)
1/2 cup Almond meal
water to blend
salt & pepper (a little cayenne if you like)
Warm a sauce pan, and put in the coconut oil/butter until it is warm wan bubbly. Saute the garlic gloves until almost golden. Add in the almond meal. This will make the mixture get very dry. At this time, add in the water to make a paste. Turn down the heat and cook the mixture for a few minutes. You may need to add more water until you get the consistency you want. A thick sauce is what I like.
Prepare the Cauliflower by washing it, and it breaking apart. The smaller the pieces the faster it will cook. Place the cauliflower pieces in a baking dish. Top the almond meal sauce around the top, and bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes or until the cauliflower is soft. Don't over cook it and let it get mushy. I like to broil it for a couple seconds just before serving so that the top gets nice and tan and crispy. It also tastes better when it is crispy!
Serving suggestions: On a bed of salad greens, rice noodles, or other steamed veggies.
Enjoy. Remember to use Barlean's Organic Coconut oil. It is the best! Ghee is quite scrumptious too.
