Recipe's preparation

  1. 1. put cauliflower florets into TMX bowl, reverse speed 5 for a few seconds (do in batches if need be). Then put aside. 

    2. Put garlic, onion and parsley into TMX bowl, sp7 3secs. Scrape down sides with spatula. Add bacon and coconut oil and saute 100 degrees, sp1, 3 minutes. 

    3. Add cauliflower rice, chicken, chilli, mushrooms, sundried tomatoes, vegetable stock and water. 100 degrees, reverse soft speed, 15 minutes. 

    4. Check if chicken is cooked and do another 5 minutes if necessary. 

    5. Put baby spinach into thermoserver then pour risotto on top and let sit for a few minutes. 

Tip

This is delicious served with Quirky Cooking's macadamia cheese! You can change the ingredients to suit what is in your house e.g. change bacon for chorizo, or put baby spinach in the bottom of the thermoserver before putting the risotto in. Add extra ingredients such as olives, capsicum etc. 

I pre-chopped the bacon, mushrooms and sundried tomatoes as I prefer the texture like that but you don't have to. Add the bacon in with the onion and garlic to chop, and simply add the mushrooms and sundried tomatoes in as per the recipe and the blades will chop them up slightly instead.

    Yum! Added a few different veggies but still worked a treat. I used chicken stock. Didn't need any added salt.

    I gave this a go but with quite a few changes due to allergies, what was in the fridge, etc. but I was pleased with the result. I had no meat but used chicken broth for liquid and used 1/3C which gave it a small amount of 'sauce' for flavouring. I only had a few mushrooms but added in broccoli, pumpkin and peas. Allergy to coconut so replaced with 1Tbs each of duck fat and lard. Nightshade sensitivity so no sundries or chilli - hubby added sweet chilli sauce to his. 1yo loved it. I look forward to having it with meat next time. Thanks for the recipe.

    Yummy! Next time I'd change the sundried tomato for corn and peas.
