Ingredients

1 small head of Cauliflower (stems leaves peeled off, florets separated)
4 glasses water with salt

150 g medium ground beef
1 medium sized carrot (cut in cubes)
1 onion (sliced)
3 garlic cloves (sliced)
1/2 cubanelle pepper (cut in medium sized chunks)
1/2 red pepper (cut in medium sized chunks)
3 fresh green onions (cut in medium sized chunks)
60 ml extra virgin olive oil
1 glass warm water mixed with 3 tablespoons crushed tomato in can
salt
pepper
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Cooking Instructions

First boil the florets for almost two minutes in the water with salt in a medium sized pot. Drain and place them in a shallow cooking pan. In the meantime, cook the ground beef with salt and pepper over medium heat in a separate pan. Stir constantly. Add 1/2 glass of the warm water mixed with crushed tomato, carrots, onion and garlic, and cook for almost five more minutes. Pour this all over the cauliflowers with the rest of the warm water. Arrange cubanelle peppers, red peppers and fresh green onions on top. Pour olive oil all over. Cover the lid halfway and cook for almost twenty minutes over medium heat. Add the lemon juice and sprinkle crushed pepper at the end. Serve hot.
