Ingredients
Cauliflower. The main ingredient, cauliflower is a versatile vegetable that easily turns into rice-like pieces, making it a great base for a variety of dishes.
Broth. Broth adds a rich flavor and keeps the cauliflower rice from being dry. It’s a simple way to add extra taste of your dish. Use chicken, beef or vegetable broth. You can also use simply water.
Vegetable or coconut oil. This oil helps cook the cauliflower rice and adds a nice flavor. Coconut oil gives a slightly sweet taste, while other oils like olive or avocado offer a more neutral flavor.
How to make cauliflower rice
Take a cauliflower. Cut it into florets and then pulse in the food processor. I used a mini food processor and it took me forever so i recommend using the biggest one you have at home.
So now you have a raw cauliflower rice. To make it ready to eat you will need to saute it with some oil and chicken or vegetable broth until soft.
