I'm a magician: I can make fried rice without using any rice. Woooooo, spoooooky!

Friday, April 23, 2010
Ok, I confess: I'm not really a magician. I'm just a girl who found a great recipe idea on Fatsecret. Tammyme, a Fatsecret user, posted a great Cauliflower Fried Rice recipe. But here's the catch: it's rice-free. The fun part of this meal is that the cauliflower serves as rice, so you get the taste and great texture of fried rice plus the benefits from the cauliflower without all the empty calories from the traditional white rice we would normally use.





Simply use grated cauliflower instead of rice, and then do everything you would normally do to make fried rice! I make mine with an egg, chives and reduced-sodium Kikkoman soy sauce. You can add whatever else you want, like other vegetables or even chicken. But to be completely honest, the best part about this meal is that since the amount of calories in cauliflower is ridiculous compared to what's in white rice, I can indulge in a really big bowl! Don't be scared and give it a try!

Ma mère saurait vous dire à quel point j'aime le riz, probablement autant que ma soeur Nathalie aime les "patates pilées"! Donc évidemment, trouver une idée de recette qui me donnerait l'impression de manger un énorme bol de riz, sans les remords, c'était bien sûr un très grand moment de joie. On n'a qu'à remplacer le riz par du chou-fleur rapé et on prépare comme si on faisait un riz frit traditionnel. On frit le chou-fleur râpé avec un oeuf qu'on brouille et de la sauce soya, et c'est tout! Je viens d'en manger un gros, gros bol et j'ai déjà hâte d'en remanger.
