Cauliflower curry "coucous"

Cauliflower is a relatively bland vegetable closely related to broccoli. It has the ability to take on flavors and can be made to resemble starchy foods. For those who have been low carbing for a while may be familiar with faux mashed potatoes made from boiled and purees cauliflower and heavy cream. This dish is inspired by a dish I had in Atlanta Georgia at the Upstairs Room Restaurant. Its texture is very close to couscous, a Middle Eastern grain dish.

Ingredients:


1 head of cauliflower de-stemmed and coarsely chopped

1 large carrot peeled and sliced

1/2 cup canola oil

4 tsp yellow curry powder


Directions:


working in small batches run the cauliflower and carrot in a food processor on high until all of the veggies are super-finely pulverized. transfer to a mixing bowl and add oil and curry powder. mix well to combine.
