Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing your ingredients. Break the cauliflower into florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until the cauliflower resembles rice grains, working in batches if necessary. Set aside.
Grate the fresh ginger using a microplane or the small holes of a box grater. Mince the garlic cloves finely. Trim and slice the green onions, keeping the white and light green parts separate from the darker green tops.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the coconut oil. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and grated ginger. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet. Cook while stirring frequently for about 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender and slightly golden.
Stir in the coconut aminos, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste. If desired, increase the heat to slightly caramelize the cauliflower rice.
Add the white and light green parts of the green onions. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to soften them.
Remove from the heat and sprinkle the darker green slices of the green onions on top as a garnish.
Serve immediately as a side dish or as a base for your favorite Whole30 meals.
