Thinly slice the cauliflower, finely chop the shallots, and juice and zest the oranges to prep. Set aside until ready to use.
Melt butter in large skillet that is at least 3” deep over medium heat.
Add shallots, rice, and cauliflower to skillet and sauté until browned and fragrant - about 2-3 minutes.
Pour in orange juice into the pan to deglaze the pan, stirring until fully absorbed.
Add ½ cup of broth at a time. Each time stirring until absorbed, then add another ½ cup and repeat until all of the broth is added and the rice is cooked al dente, about 15-20 minutes.
After all the liquid is absorbed, stir in cream, parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, and salt (see notes about salt) and cook 2-3 more minutes while stirring. Heavy cream can curdle when added to high heat, so ensure the risotto is on low heat.
Mix in orange zest and enjoy!
