Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams cauliflower florets
- 50 grams fresh parsley
- 20 grams fresh mint leaves
- 150 grams cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium cucumber
- 2 stalks green onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Break the cauliflower into florets and pulse them in a food processor until they resemble the texture of couscous. Be careful not to over-process.
In a medium skillet, sauté the cauliflower 'couscous' over medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Allow it to cool completely.
Finely chop the parsley and mint leaves, discarding any thick stems.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into small pieces.
Peel the cucumber (optional), then dice it into small cubes.
Slice the green onions thinly, using both the white and light green parts.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled cauliflower 'couscous,' parsley, mint, tomatoes, cucumber, and green onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss everything together until well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
