This dish is a summer classic for me. It is a fresh, delicious, easy and super quick dish to make. It is perfect when you don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen or by the grill but still want to eat something delicious. It is also perfect to make if you want something that doesn’t feel too heavy or overwhelming. This meal is made with cauliflower rice to keep it both quick, light, healthy and allergy and food preference friendly. It’s provides something freshness, crunch and warmth to the dish, yet still keeping it light. Then I added grilled zucchini and aubergine that adds both softness and a bot of crunch to the dish as well and topped it with grilled/fried prawns. This dish is perfect to serve for lunch or dinner. It is both gluten, grain free and low carb.
A few tips:
- I like making my cauliflower rice in a high speed blender since it’s so easy and quick. But you can also use a shredder.
- The cauliflower rice should be quickly fried to make it warm and just a little tender. But don’t fry it for too long, you don’t want it to get soft and soggy.
- Use a really hot grill or grill pan when grilling/frying the vegetables and prawns.
- The vegetables should get grill marks and a bit soft, but not overcooked and soggy. So make sure not to grill/fry them for too long.
- I love making my prawns a bit “al dente” and not fully cooked through. It makes them more tender and juicy instead of dry and hard. Therefore I like to grill/fry them for 1-2 minutes on each side and no longer.
