How to Make Cauliflower Zaalouk Recipe
STEP 01
Try breaking the cauliflower into medium-sized or bite-sized chunks.
STEP 02
Place a large pot filled with salted water on medium heat, add the cauliflower chunks, then cover it with a lid, and cook until the cauliflower is tender enough to mash easily.
STEP 03
In the meantime, let’s prepare the rest of the ingredients. Dash and finely chop the garlic cloves, then finely chop the fresh parsley and cilantro.
STEP 04
Remove the pulp of the preserved lemon, and finely chop them too.
STEP 05
Once cauliflower is ready, drain the cauliflower from the water and place it in a large bowl. Mash the cauliflower with a wooden spoon until you get a soft yet rough mixture.
STEP 06
In a large skillet, heat some olive oil on medium heat, add the crushed garlic, and cook for 2 minutes. Now add the mashed cauliflower followed by the ground paprika, ground cumin, chopped preserved lemon pulp, finely chopped parsley, and cilantro, salt, and pepper, saute and mix them well.
