I’m just wondering why there isn’t a recipe for it yet Cauliflower rice on my blog. I love the low carb rice substitute, which tastes just slightly like cauliflower with delicious toppings. Whether with Thai curry, chicken and vegetables or as a salad – vegetable rice is a real alternative to conventional rice. And the cabbage version is also great for children. So what are we waiting for!
Low carb replacement products
There are so many low carb alternatives to wheat products and I’ve actually tried a few. For example, there is the so-called Konja circlewhich is made from the Konjac root. Low carb noodles are also available in the konjac version. But between you and me – you can hunt me down with konjac products. I don’t like them at all!
I much, much prefer low-carb alternatives made from vegetables. You probably know what’s coming now! Oh yes, my beloved zucchini noodles. For me, THE alternative to pasta. Wonderfully crunchy, healthy, filling and with the right sauce, simply heavenly delicious!
You can also make rice from vegetables. Very simple, quick and no pre-cooking required! By the way, it doesn’t take any longer to prepare than to cook rice.
Forget the sticky konja rice and give cauliflower a chance.
Cauliflower rice – the low carb classic
Then let’s get started! Take a medium-sized cauliflower. It is divided into slightly larger florets and chopped in portions in the blender until it is about the size of rice.
Now it’s time to fry. I use coconut oil for this, which gives the cauliflower a great basic taste. The cauliflower rice is fried in the pan over medium heat for about six minutes. Then season with salt and pepper and your low carb rice is ready!
I always add some lime juice and mixed herbs (for example coriander) to my cauliflower rice.
Freeze cauliflower rice
Cauliflower rice freezes really well. It’s best to put it into freezer-safe cans or freezer bags immediately after chopping it. After defrosting, all you have to do is fry the low-carb rice in a little coconut oil.
