This Thermomix Cheesy Cauliflower Rice makes a great side dish for the family and is also a great food for babies and toddlers!
When I recently came across Cauliflowers for just 48 cents each (yep, seriously!) I couldn’t help myself and bought NINE of them! This seemed like a great idea at the time, but after making five batched of Cheese and Cauliflower Fritters I knew I needed to come up with some other recipes to make.
This Thermomix Cheesy Cauliflower Rice was a big hit with all three of my kids, the older boys who won’t normally eat cauliflower when it’s just been steamed LOVED this ‘special rice’ which I served with roast lamb and veggies and our baby boy who will eat anything couldn’t get enough of it!
For the grown ups you can add a little salt and pepper when you add the cheese, I left it out for the kids though. I’ve made a couple of batches of this recipe so far and have popped it into the freezer for an easy side or meals for the kids down the track.
- 600 g of cauliflower
- 80 g of cheddar cheese
- 20 g of parmesan cheese
- 400 g of water
-
Place both of the cheeses into your Thermomix bowl and blitz for 8 seconds of speed 8. Set aside until needed.
-
Without washing the bowl, add the cauliflower florets and blitz for 6 seconds on speed 6 or until the cauliflower is finely chopped and resembles ‘rice’.
-
Transfer the chopped cauliflower to your large varoma dish.
-
Without washing the bowl, add 400g of water and put the varoma into place. Cook for 13 minutes, varoma, speed 2.
-
Transfer the cooked cauliflower rice to a thermoserver and mix through the grated cheeses. Serve.
Enjoy!
