Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine brown rice, water, and salt, and place over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for approximately 45 minutes, or until all of the water is absorbed. Remove the rice from the heat and let it sit, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
  2. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until the onions are turning dark brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add ginger and jalapeño pepper, finely chopped. Cook for 1 more minute, stirring.
  4. Add cauliflower and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add coconut milk and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 6-8 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender, but not mushy.
  5. Pour the cauliflower mixture into the cooked rice and stir well. Serve and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro.
