Could have shown you. You know those big pasta bowls, the size you'd serve into and eat out of? When it's rice, it's a big serving - the bowl was about a third full, and it was then piled high with curry and sprouts. Am full up.For two servings (each the serving size described above) I microwave 500g frozen cauli on full power for 10 mins, then turn it over and give it another 5. I then put it into the food processor with lots of pepper and salt and a few sprinkles of nutritional yeast (to give it a gorgeous savoury flavour), and whizz it till it's rice. Then I bung it back in the microwave for 2 mins, stir and serve. Sometimes I chuck in some coriander before whizzing.For mash (2 portions) I microwave 500g for 10 mins then another 10 mins (ie longer than for rice), and use a stick blender rather than a processor. Half a tub of Philly, handful(s) of grated cheese, pepper, nutritional yeast for yumminess. It ends up a smaller-looking amount but it's very filling and takes up about a third of a dinner plate.For my supper on Sunday I wanted 'porridge' out of a bowl, preferably eaten in bed. I was cold and tired and hungry. I mashed 500g (TWO servings!) using my stick blender, with the cheeses and seasonings described above. Took it upstairs and ate the lot. Happy Snapsy. Perfect stodge fix...BTW when I say 'a big serving', 'am full up' and 'very filling', I really mean it.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite37" alt=":happy:" title="Happy    :happy:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":happy:" />Oooops edited again to actually answer the question! No, in terms of fists, unwhizzed or unblended cauli x 250g is at least two fistfuls. Sorry - got carried away with waxing too lyrical about my favourite vegetable....</blockquote>I tried the cauli and cheese mash tonight...OMG ... life changing, will never need potatoes again <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> thanks[/QUOTE]
