Description

This cauliflower fried rice with Mediterranean flavors is a low-carb, lectin-free side dish that will make a healthy and nutritious addition to any meal. 


Ingredients

  • 6 cups cauliflower rice (1 small cauliflower or frozen cauliflower rice)
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 celery sticks, chopped
  • 1 big carrot, chopped
  • 1 fennel bulb, chopped
  • 1, 2 teaspoons herbs de Provence
  • 6 medium brown mushrooms, chopped
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 handful fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
  • more extra virgin olive oil for serving
  • Optional: finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Heat a few tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a big skillet. 
  2. Add the onions, celery, carrots and fennel and sautee on low to medium heat until they soften up and fragrant (about 10-15 minutes). Stir frequently. 
  3. Add the mushrooms, herbs de Provence, salt and pepper, combine and continue to cook until the mushrooms soften, stirring occasionally (about 10 minutes). 
  4. Add the cauliflower rice, mix well and continue to cook on medium heat and stir. It will take maximum 10 minutes, as you don’t want the cauliflower to get soggy. 
  5. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper, add the apple cider vinegar and the chopped cilantro or parsley. 
  6. Drizzle with more fresh olive oil and serve as a side dish or as part of a Buddha bowl with other vegetables and protein.
