- 1 head of cauliflower, grated (I did mine in a food processor so it was more pulverized than grated)
- 1 sweet onion, diced
- 1 red pepper, diced
- 1 green pepper, diced
- 2 stalks of local Chilliwack corn, sliced off cob (this is my favorite summer time local food!)
- 1 jalapeno, diced (I used the seeds)
- 1 lb mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- Leftover roast beef gravy
- 2 - 3 cups roast beef, shredded (I did it in the food processor)
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
- Fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt to taste
- Trader Joe's Everyday Seasoning to taste
I started with all the slice & dice prep work first. I actually did the food processor stuff the night before (below) so I had less preparation tonight.
I used a big non-stick frying pan for this because I didn't want the veggies to steam.
I started by sauteing everything but the cauliflower and beef first. I used extra virgin olive oil. In fact, the beef and gravy would be the last to go in. I was really hoping to achieve a crust on the hash before I put in the beef and gravy.
I sauteed until the mushrooms were almost cooked then threw in the cauliflower. This is what I wanted crispy and browned so I didn't stir often...I drizzled a little more olive oil in over top - in total I probably used half a cup or so.
It took about a half hour at med-high heat and it did crisp and brown.
I added in the roast beast and gravy. I brought this to a simmer and turned to low heat for about 20 minutes.
Then I topped with the cheese until melted.
I made my son two fried eggs over easy to top his and a couple of toasted biscuits that I bought at the bakery. I just ate mine as is, though I added a couple of shakes of "Frank's Red Hot" and Worcestershire sauce.
So, I thought it was really good but my son said he did miss the potatoes. He finished it all though and told me it was still delicious. I found there was lots of good tastes without taters and the textures were satisfying. Oh well, I tried and I appreciate that he eats everything I make... :)
