Begin by bringing a large pot of water to boil. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Cut the cauliflower into small, bite-sized florets. Ensure they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
Once the water is boiling, add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 5-7 minutes until tender but still firm. Do not overcook.
While the cauliflower is cooking, hard boil the eggs in a separate pot for about 9-10 minutes. Once done, cool them in ice water and then peel and chop them.
Drain the cauliflower and immediately transfer it to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and maintain brightness. Drain well after a few minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Whisk well to create the dressing.
Add the cooled and drained cauliflower, chopped eggs, parsley, green onions, celery, and cooked bacon to the dressing.
Gently fold all ingredients together until the cauliflower is evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Serve the Keto Maionese de Batata chilled, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
