Red Hot Cauliflower Recipe Ingredients:
1 small onion
1 lime

Red Hot Cauliflower Recipe Cooking Instructions:
1. Chop the onion very finely and place in a bowl. With a zester or sharp knife, peel away the zest of the lime in thin strips. Add the lime zest to the finely chopped onion.
2. Cut the lime in half and use a reamer or citrus squeezer to extract the juice from each half in turn, adding it to the onion and lime zest mixture. Set aside for the lime juice to soften the onion.
3. Cut the cauliflower into florets. Tip the tomatoes into a pan and add the chillies and sugar. Heat gently. Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook gently for 5-8 minutes until tender.
4. Add the chopped onion mixture to the tomato salsa, with salt to taste. Stir and heat through then spoon about 1/3 of the salsa into a serving dish.
5. Arrange the drained cauliflower florets on top of the salsa and spoon the remaining salsa on top.
6. Sprinkle with the feta, which should soften a little on contact. Serve immediately, sprinkled with chopped fresh flat leaf parsley.
