Cauliflower Rice

When I visited my son and daughter-in-law in Tucson, Abba made a lovely dinner one night of cauliflower rice and pan-seared salmon  Here's how she did the "rice."
It's quite ingenious!  This is a paleo recipe for those of you who like to eat low carb.

Start with a head of cauliflower, an onion and a couple cloves of garlic.


Chop up the onion and garlic.


Rinse the cauliflower and break into pieces.


Saute the onions and garlic in some oil in a large saucepan.


While the onions and garlic are cooking slowly, place the cauliflower in a food processor and pulse until it resembles coarse grains of rice.  Don't over-process it!



Once the onion and garlic is softened and cooked down, add the cauliflower.  Stir well, cover and cook on low for 5 minutes


Add 1/2 cup or more of coconut milk to the pan.


Cover and cook for 5-10 more minutes until the cauliflower is cooked through but not mushy.



Add chopped cilantro, salt and pepper before serving.  You could also add some jalapeno or crushed red pepper at the beginning to add heat.
