But really…..how could cauliflower taste just like my beloved fried rice?Â
I am happy to report that this Cauliflower Fried Rice taste absolutely like fried rice!!! Both my girls are a big fan of fried rice. They didn’t blink an eye when I put a bowl of this cauliflower fried rice in front of them.  Little D ate her whole bowl and asked for more! Have fun mixing in your favorite vegetables and proteins. My favorite so far has been to add in some eggs and egg whites and a ton of veg.

- 3 cups of grated raw cauliflower (use a cheese grater or food processor)

- Next stir in scrambled eggs , cauliflower and soy sauce. Cook stirring frequently for about 5-7 more minutes.

I am so glad you liked it Lindsay!
THANK YOU for sharing this recipe……. did this one for our dinner/evening meal. I did follow the recipe…but added 2 cups of pre-mixed coleslaw vegies. Yummmy. I used the cauliflower rice topped with a topside steak which was basted in wholegrain mustard, dash of chillie, 1 tsp brown sugar, cracked pepper/salt, with 1 tsp of Herb and Garlic Seasoning with Olive Oil to combine.
Baste the steak….leave for a few minutes; longer if needed. Cook on a Griddle Pan a few minutes each side. I found that the basting was sticking into the grooves of the pan, so I added some white wine….and extra few spoons of water…transferred it into (the previous used) wok….simmer and added pinch of brown sugar and cornflour to thicken… I found this to blend lovely with the Cauliflower Rice…..
Sounds yummy!
Brilliant idea & delicious. While frying, I added some pineapple and also finely chopped walnuts to get the nutty flavour that rice has. Also added some sesame oil at the end. Endless possibilities with grated cauliflower!
Sounds yummy! I love pineapple 🙂
