Ingredients
400 gram cauliflower rice
400 gram shrimps
2 tbsp olive oil
4 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp olive oil
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup dry white wine
1/3 cup grated parmesan
salt and pepper, to taste
2 tbsp parsley, chopped
4 lemon wedges to serve
Directions
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.
Sautee the 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.......
