  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 head cauliflower, stems trimmed and coarsely chopped (about 5 cups)
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil or olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon Celtic sea salt
  • 1 small/medium onion, finely chopped, (optional)*
  • ¼ cup parsley or cilantro chopped (optional)
  • fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. If using a box grater cut the cauliflower into large chunks and use the medium-sized holes, to grate into “rice.”
  2. If using a food processor cut into small pieces and pulse to to chop the cauliflower into small pieces that look like “rice.”
  3. Heat oil in a large sauté pan over medium low heat.
  4. Add onion (if using), sauté for 5 minutes, until soft.
  5. Add cauliflower to the sauté pan sprinkle with salt. Cover and cook for 8-12 minutes, on low heat, stirring occasionally until soft.
  6. Stir in parsley, (if using), and season with black pepper.
  7. Taste to adjust salt and serve.

Notes

You can make this rice without the onion or parsley. Simply sauté in a large skillet over medium heat in 1 tablespoon of oil. Cover with a lid so the cauliflower steams and becomes more tender. Cook for a total of 5-8 minutes, then season with salt and pepper.
