Instructions

  1. Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower. Wash thoroughly and pat dry.
  2. Chop the cauliflower into 5 or 6 pieces.
  3. Grate with a box grater or (preferred) shred the cauliflower in a food processor. You may have to do a few batches. Make sure larger pieces are picked out and re-processed.
  4. Place grated cauliflower on paper towels or a thin dish towel. Wrap the cauliflower up and squeeze out the excess moisture. You may have to repeat this step several times to get most of the moisture out.
  5. Heat oil in a pan or large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Saute cauliflower rice until tender. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftover rice in the fridge in an airtight container for up to five days.
  • You can also freeze raw cauliflower rice for up to a month. Store in the freezer in an airtight container.
  • Cook frozen cauliflower rice the same way as if it were thawed. The cooking time will just be a little longer.
