Ultimate cauliflower rice
Thursday, November 12, 2020
Cauliflower rice is an excellent light alternative to rice but it can be very bland. This is a lovely flavoursome version with a great combination of tastes and textures!
I love cauliflower rice but it can be very bland. I like to perk it up with lots of flavours and textures to make it more interesting.
I have tweaked this a lot and love this version. It may be healthy but it tastes really indulgent. I eat it regularly and much prefer it to real rice!
I have used frozen edamame beans but it you can’t get them, frozen peas work well too!
The beauty of this recipe is that you can used up leftovers or add any of your favourite ingredients to make it work for you!
