Crock pot here again, well at least for the other part of the family, I have slow roast moroccan beef, and even if I don`t eat it myself, it smells pretty good! Probably serve it with a herby couscous.
Now what to have for myself? ? ?

I just popped across to the butcher and bought a lovely piece of scotch fillet to roast tomorrow night - just seem to be craving good old red meat at the moment.

Fisher, as you know I don't eat rice so worked with a basic recipe I found to develop this (even G loves it! ). Very yummy! Recipe is per person.
Ingredients
1/4 head of small-medium cauliflower 1/3 of a leek, roughly chopped (opt) Salt & pepper 3T plain desiccated coconut Juice of 1/2 a lime 2T butter Dash of olive oil
Method
Put the cauli and leek in the food whizz and pulse until it make fine particles the size of rice Add the coconut to a dry pan on low heat and stir constantly until lightly golden and toasted (watch it as it's easy to overdo! ). Remove. Add the butter and oil (to reduce the burning point of the butter) When sizzling add the cauli and leek rice and reduce the heat, stirring well Cook over a low-medium heat until softening (I allow 10-15 mins max. with the odd stir) Season and taste Just before removing from pan to serve stir through the coconut and lime juice and mix in well
