Start by removing the leaves and stem from the cauliflower head. Quarter the cauliflower and remove the core.
Cut the cauliflower into smaller florets and place them into a food processor. Pulse until it reaches a rice-like consistency. Avoid over-processing to prevent mushy cauliflower.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Stir frequently and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the rice vinegar, erythritol, and salt. Stir until the erythritol and salt dissolve completely.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the cauliflower rice, stirring well to ensure even distribution and absorption of flavors. Allow to cook for another minute.
Remove the skillet from heat and let the 'sushi rice' cool slightly. Use this keto-perfect sushi rice in your favorite keto-friendly sushi rolls or bowls.
