Ingredients
- 3garlic cloves, peeled
- 1small jalapeño, seeded and cut into
- 1-inch pieces
- 11-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled
- 1small onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1medium cauliflower head (about 1
- pound), cut into about 6 cups of florets
- 1small red pepper, cut into
- 1-inch-wide planks
- 2tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- ½teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼teaspoon ground turmeric
- Cilantro leaves and roasted peanuts,
- for garnish
Preparation
- 1. Insert the universal blade in the work bowl of the Cuisinart® 7 or 9 Cup Food Processor. While the unit is running, drop the garlic, jalapeño, and ginger down the feed tube to finely chop, scraping bowl if necessary. Remove and reserve.
- 2. Add the onion to the work bowl and pulse 8 to 10 times. Reserve with the garlic mixture.
- 3. Add half of the cauliflower florets to the work bowl. Using 10 to 12 long pulses, chop until the cauliflower is cut into rice-size pieces. Remove and reserve on a paper towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining cauliflower. Cover with paper towels and press to remove any excess moisture. (An optional step is to further dry cauliflower in a 200°F oven for 15 minutes.)
- 4. Replace the universal blade with the medium slicing disc. Line the red pepper planks vertically in the feed tube. Slice and reserve with the garlic mixture.
- 5. Put 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet or sauté pan, and place over medium heat. Once the oil is hot and shimmers across the pan, add the garlic-vegetable mixture. Cook, stirring frequently, until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Once fragrant, stir in the salt and turmeric.
- 6. Add the remaining oil. Once hot, add the cauliflower. Stir together. Cover and cook until the cauliflower is tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
- 7. Remove the cover and continue cooking. Occasionally stir to scrape up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan; this adds to the crunch of the dish.
- 8. Taste and adjust seasoning according to preference. Garnish with the cilantro and peanuts, and serve immediately.
