As this was the most popular post of 2014, I decided to reshoot and re film the tutorial for how to make cauliflower rice!
When i first came across this glorious side dish, all the tutorials contained a food processor, which was a bummer for me since I didn’t have one! Since then, I’ve experimented many ways of how to create the perfect rice like consistency without one and here I show you 2 of my favourites!
My favourite way to serve this is in the form of fried rice – you’ll find that it’s a great way to sneak veggies into kids! 😉
Oh, and have you seen?! I’ve now got bloglovin‘ – check out the link on my sidebar! 🙂
Cauliflower Rice vegan, gluten free, dairy free
This is a super easy side dish or main dish to make – only full of good stuff and great if you’re feeling something light! You can also eat this raw, which I’m sure would be lovely in the summer months!
Method 1
Cauliflower florets
Box grater
Grate the cauliflower florets on the grater and it will produce a fine consistency.
One thing that should be noted with this method is it’s slightly tricky to grate the stalks to be careful of your fingers!
Method 2
Cauliflower florets
Blender (I use a nutribullet)
Put small chunks of cauliflower into the blender and pulse it a few times.
This method may yield to a slightly more wet ‘rice’ so I would recommend sautéing if you choose to make it this way.
I sauté by adding some extra virgin olive oil or coconut oil to a pan and season with salt then serve when it starts to brown!
I love the idea of cauliflower rice, really must give this a go!
We love cauliflower rice. Grating is a great idea!
Thank you Kiran!
All about cauliflower rice!! Def gonna whip some cauliflower fried rice now. Thanks for the inspo, lovely little lady!!
Thank Alana! Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Ahh how clever! I take it for granted that people have food processors but you’re right, not everyone does! 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Lorraine!
This is perfect, since I don’t have a food processor, but I have both a nutri bullet and box grater! With the nutri bullet, did you use the blade meant to mill dry ingredients, or the 4-sided one for wet ingredients? Thanks!
I only have the 4 sided one and just pulsed it quickly! So glad you can finally try it out!
What blade did you use in nutribullet
Hi there, just used the regular blade that came with my nutribullet! (Not the milling blade)
