5 comforting cauliflower dishes

Cauli-rice is not the only delicious creation the gorgeous cauliflower has to offer us. Just because it’s a vegetable doesn’t mean it can’t create a satisfying meal all on its own. Here are Hannah Lewry’s favourite ways to eat cauliflower during the chilly season.

CAULIFLOWER CROQUETTES

This is a fabulous recipe to make for friends as a snack before dinner. It’s best served hot out of the pan, but you can make them ahead of time and simply reheat the oven.

I love making this dish, it’s super easy and all the hard work happens in the oven. It’s fantastic served as a main with lentils or a side dish at a braai. Or serve it with roast chicken or oxtail.
