    Place cauliflower in steaming basket with 500g water in TM bowl and steam 15mins/varoma/speed2. Carefully drain the cauliflower using the spatular attached to the steaming basket and discard hot water in bowl. Puree the cauliflower in the TM bowl speed 8 until desired consistency.

    My partner and I made this last night, and found we weren't really fans of it. We thought we'd try something different and healthy but after fiddling with the instructions for ages then after frying we found the end product wasn't worth all the effort. Sorry, we wont be making this again.
