Ingredients
1
Cup
Raw cauliflower rice
1
Tsp
Olive oil
salt
Pepper
Instructions
Wash and dry the cauliflower.
Remove the greens.
Cut the cauliflower into florets.
METHOD 1: HAND GRATER
Hold the grater over a plate or bowl and rub each cauliflower floret against the holes of the grater.
METHOD 2: CAULIFLOWER RICER
Take the green lead off the gadget. Place the cauliflower florets into the white container of the ricer.
Put the green lead back on and turn the green base and the green lead in opposite directions.
METHOD 3: BLENDER
Place the cauliflower florets into the blender jug until three-quarters full.
Add enough water to cover the cauliflower florets.
Blend just for 2 to 4 seconds, or until you get smal granules.
Pour the cauliflower rice water through a mesh strainer over the sink.
Tap to remove as much water as possible and place in a bowl.
COOK THE CAULIFLOWER RICE
Heat a skillet or saucepan over medium heat.
Add the olive oil to the hot skillet.
Chop the garlic and add it to the skillet.
Cook for a minute or so.
Add the cauliflower rice and stir.
Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes or unite the cauliflower rice is tender but still has a bite. I like it "al dente".
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the cauliflower rice is cooked, remove it from the heat.
Squeeze some lemon juice and add some more pepper.
Enjoy!
Notes
About the quantity:
I always grate the whole cauliflower head but only cook one serving for me, and store the rest for later use.
