You can google some recipes for cauliflower rice and purees.....
I took raw cauliflower and grated the florets in a cheese/hash brown grater.....with very little stalk.
Placed in a small paper plate....drizzled a little water on it.....pinch of salt....pinch of garlic powder....microwaved till cooked.
For this dish I wanted to under flavor the "rice" so the it picked up the flavor of the Tikka sauce.....

OK.... this is basically it..... I did it off the cuff.....
In a fry pan......
A little olive oil.....
1/4 chopped onion
1/8 chopped bell pepper
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
Dash salt & pepper
Saute till onion and bell pepper softens a little
Add:
1/2 teaspoon Garam Masala
1/2 teaspoon Red Chili Powder
1/4 teaspoon Paprika
1/4 teaspoon Ginger powder
Pat of butter (I use Smart Balance Butter like stuff)
Stir in spices.... it gets kinda paste like.......
Add:
8oz. can of tomato sauce.
4oz. half and half (you can use Greek yogurt ....I didn't have any at the time)
Stir/mix and let simmer on low-low
I added a half a pack of Splenda
When I do it again......I'm gonna do the same, but add about 4oz. of chicken stock and blend the entire contents.
Classic Tikka Masala....you would saute the chicken up front with the onions...... I like the chicken separate.....so everything is not all one taste.
Should work out !!!
