Prepare the vegetables

• This procedure can be used for the leaves and stems of a cauliflower; broccolli stalks; the hard part at the bottom of a cabbage or anything else you don't want to use as it is
• Set up your food processor with a small shredding blade
• Turn the food processor on, and using the part provided to push ingredients on to the shredding blade, push each stem etc through the shredder
• You will get a bowl of shredded vegetable that can be used as it is in slaw, with French dressing or mayonnaise, steamed as a hot vegetable, used in soups, casseroles etc
• Do make sure to bag or box securely as the shredded veg are rather pungent!
