Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 2 cups Spinach
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice grains. Do this in small batches to avoid overprocessing.
Mince the garlic. Dice the red bell pepper and zucchini into small pieces. Roughly chop the spinach and cilantro.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Stir in the cauliflower rice and turmeric powder, ensuring even distribution of the yellow color. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Add the chopped spinach and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted.
Season with salt, ground black pepper, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Remove from heat and top with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
Serve hot as a standalone dish or as a side to your favorite keto-friendly protein.
