Cauliflower has been the apple of the eye in recent years for its versatility and deliciousness. I’ve been also raving about it for some time and I’m daring to say it’s my new favourite vegetable. People have been adding it to pasta sauces, eating it as rice and turning it into pizzas. But my favourite way of eating cauliflower is as a ‘steak’.
