Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 0.5 medium Onion
- 0.5 cup Bell pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric
- 0.25 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce

Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower: cut 1 medium head of cauliflower into large florets. Using a food processor, pulse them until they resemble rice granules. Alternatively, you can use a box grater to achieve the rice-like texture.
Mince the 2 large garlic cloves and finely chop half a medium onion. Dice the 0.5 cup of bell pepper into small pieces.
In a large frying pan or skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the pan. Sauté for about 3 minutes until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
Stir in the diced bell pepper and continue to sauté for another 2 minutes, allowing the bell pepper to soften slightly.
Add the cauliflower rice to the pan and mix well with the sautéed vegetables.
Season the mixture with 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.25 teaspoon of black pepper, 0.25 teaspoon of turmeric, and 0.25 teaspoon of chili powder.
Pour in 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, stirring the mixture to evenly distribute the flavors.
Toss in 0.25 cup of green peas, mixing everything together. Allow to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower rice is tender.
Turn off the heat and transfer the Keto Savory Rice to a serving dish.
Garnish with 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy immediately as a delicious, low-carb side dish.
