Ingredients
- ½ head of cauliflower (shredded)
- 1 cup of mixed vegetables
- 1 cup of yellow onions (reduce if you wish, but I love onions)
- 1/3 cup green onions
- ½ cup of green bell pepper
- 1 teaspoon of vegetable seasoning powder bouillon (divide into two; add one piece to shredded cauliflower and the other part to sautéing)
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt (split into two; add one part to shredded cauliflower and the other part to sautéing)
- ¼ black pepper or any pepper of choice
- 1 tablespoon of extra olive oil
Instructions
- Season The Shredded Cauliflower. Place the shredded cauliflower or riced cauliflower into a bowl and season it with a dash of salt and Knorr boullion or Maggi. This enhances the taste of bland cauliflower before you start cooking.
- Make Your Cauliflower Fried Rice. Place a clean pan on the stove and set the heat to medium. Add olive oil, about one-two teaspoon(s); sprinkle in a dash of salt as the oil heats up. Then add small onions; allow the onions to soften (about 1 minute), and add the green pepper. Allow the green pepper to cook for 1 – 2 minutes, and then add some of the mixed veggies. Sprinkle some seasoning vegetable boullion powder, curry powder, and black pepper. Keep sautéing for two additional minutes for the infusion of flavors. Then, introduce the cauliflower. With the cauliflower in, keep stirring until fully cooked, and gently throw in some green onions at the end. Finally, taste and adjust flavors.
- Repeat. Repeat the process to cook the rest of the cauliflower rice. Make sure check out the video of this recipe.
Notes
Add salt and pepper according to your taste.
The vegetables may seem too much for half head of cauliflower, please feel free to reduce/adjust as you need. The goal of this recipe is to show you my process of cooking cauliflower fried rice without eggs and soy-sauce!
I hope you got something out of this recipe and then make yours as you wish.
I used Vegetable Bouillon powder, but, you can skip it.
Please not that you will not need up 20 minutes if you are making food worth of one person. And if you are using frozen or already shredded cauliflower (riced cauliflower) then time reduces even more!
Make this dish bit by bit; do not cook everything at the same time. It might become mushy.
Add any other spice you would like to add.
I like my veggies to be a little crunchy, so I rarely cook them long. Do not add water to this cauliflower rice recipe!
