Preheat Oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Prepare vegetables as per ingredients instructions (pic doesn't show the Cauliflower once put in the food processor or the rice flour mixture).
Place 1tbs Olive oil in a pan, add the onion and saute for 5mins..
While the onion sautes, in the other pan, add the processed Cauliflower, 2 cups almond milk, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper to the other pan. Place lid on pan and leave to simmer covered (I didn't take any pics, sorry). This will cook down for approx 15 - 20mins cooking (or until softened).

Just before the filling is ready, add the rice flour water mixture and cook for a minute or so and place the filling mixture into the baking tray.
For the topping, place the cooked down Cauliflower mixture in a Food processor (I used a Nutribullet), with the butter and 2tbs Parmesan and blitz until smooth..
Spread the Cauliflower Mash over the top of the filling, sprinkle the last tablespoon of Parmesan over the top and bake for 30mins..

Special Tips for You

Cooking Basics for Beginners

In regards to cooking, it is important to keep in mind that everybody else started somewhere. I don't know of one person who came to be with a wooden cooking spoon and all set. There is a whole lot of learning which needs to be carried out in order to be prolific cook and there is definitely room for improvement. Not only do you will need to start with the basics in terms of cooking however you nearly must start when understanding how to cook a fresh cuisine such as Chinese, Chinese, Thai, or Indian food.

This usually means that at any particular time on your cooking learning cycles there's quite probably somebody somewhere that's better and/or worse at cooking than you. Take advantage of this because even the best have bad days when it comes to cooking. There are lots of men and women who cook for different factors. Some cook as a way to consume and live while others cook since they actually enjoy the whole process of cooking. Some cook during times of emotional trauma among many others cookout of sheer boredom. Whatever your reason behind cooking or learning to cook you should begin with the basics.

Yet another fantastic little bit of advice in regards to cooking principles would be to use more straightforward recipes for some time and then expand your own horizons into the more complicated recipes that abound. Most recipes are going to have tiny note about their degree of difficulty and you can read the recipe to determine whether or not it is something you're considering preparing or certain that you can prepare. Remember Rome was not built in a day and it will take a relatively good opportunity to build a reliable'repertoire' of recipes to work to your meal preparation rotation.

You will also discover as your own experience and confidence grows that you will see yourself increasingly more regularly improvising while you move and adjusting meals to meet your own personal preferences. If you prefer less or more of ingredients or wish to earn a recipe somewhat less or more spicy in flavor that can be made simple adjustments along the way so as to achieve this goal. Quite simply you will begin in time to create meals of your personal. And that's something you won't necessarily learn when it comes to basic cooking skills to newbies but you would never learn if you didn't master those basic cooking abilities.
