Ingredients
 
 

Cauliflower

  • 1 medium-sized cauliflower cut into florets

Crab and Vegetable Mixture

  • 250 g crab meat cooked and shredded
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables diced (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and Pepper

  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Garnish

  • fresh basil leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until tender but still slightly firm. Drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
  • Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  • Add the shredded crab meat, dried oregano, red pepper flakes (if desired), salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Layer half of the cauliflower florets evenly in a baking dish. Spoon half of the crab and vegetable mixture over the cauliflower. Sprinkle half of the cheese mixture on top. Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
  • Drizzle the heavy cream over the top layer, ensuring it seeps into the dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
