Steps to make Basic Cauli Rice / Cauliflower Couscous:
- Cook your meat first in a pan. I used a salty-garlicky sausage link called longganisa in the Philippines. This sausage gives out a lot of drippings that will definitely make the cauli rice tasty. Another good option is bacon or prosciutto.
- Romove your meat from pan and ser aside. Lower the heat, sauté the onions then add the garlic.
- Roughly chop your meat and add to the pan. Sauté with the onions and garlic.
- How to prep the cauliflower: wash and dry it well using a towel. Cut into florets. Separate the stalks and remove the non-edible green leaves of course. You can use the stalks connected to the flower heads, just make sure to mince well. I used a chopper/mincer machine this time, faster! After mincing, let it air dry or squeeze through with a paper towel. We need to dry it or else it will become mushy after cooking.
- Add portion by portion to your pan with the garlic-onion-meat. Season with salt and pepper. I added butter when the drippings were absorbed fully, and started looking dry. Keep mixing until everything is cooked.
- Garnish with a sunny side up or scrambled egg strips. Garnish with parsely or green onions on top. I used bell pepper, it's what I had in the fridge.
- Flavored Cauli Rice- I tried a Nasi Goreng paste. Normally it's used on rice, but it worked well with the cauli rice too. Just add a small amount, mix well.
Yes, cauliflower rice does taste a little like rice! Because rice is a pretty bland and mild food, and often used as the base of a more flavorful meat, stir fry, sauce, etc., plain rice on it's own is very basic. You'll get more uniform cauli rice and not a cauliflower mash. Use more florets and fewer stems. This couscous salad recipe with cauliflower is an easy vegan dinner recipe with roasted cauliflower.
