Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower washed and dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/3 cup parsley, chopped (optional)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- a pinch cayenne
Instructions
- Discard the leaves and cut a medium-sized cauliflower head in quarters and grate each of them using a box grater with medium holes. If you want to protect your hands during grating (or chopping), a great way to do so is to use cut resistant gloves.
- Heat a lug of olive oil in a large skillet. Sautée minced garlic until golden. Add cauliflower rice, stir and cover with a lid. Cook for about 10 minutes, stirring once or twice. Add chopped parsley (optional), salt, black pepper and a pinch of cayenne. Enjoy!
