How To Make Better Cauliflower Rice
  1. How to Make Better Cauliflower Rice

    Here are some ways to kick cauliflower rice dishes up several notches.

  2. Cook your cauliflower rice in broth and aromatics. When you cook your riced cauliflower, cook some aromatics such as minced shallots or garlic in olive oil and then add your cauliflower rice and ½ cup of chicken or vegetable broth. Cook, covered, for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Uncover and cook for 3 more minutes, and you’ll have flavorful and fluffy rice.

  3. Season with different spice blends. In addition to seasoning with salt and pepper, using other spice blends in your pantry such as ras el hanout or garam masala can help take plain rice to the next level.

  4. Mix in some mix-ins. Mix in dried fruit, nuts, or herbs into the rice. These could be dried cranberries, almonds, mint, or whatever you’re in the mood for. You can also add some heat with chopped jalapeños, which we use in our Mexican Cauliflower Rice from our book Easy Everyday Keto.

  5. Add some acidity. Stirring in fresh lime or lemon juice can add a new dimension to your cauliflower rice. Try adding lime juice and cilantro to make cilantro-lime rice, which works great as a base or a side.

  6. Drizzle on sauce. A spoonful of sauce such as chimichurri can mask any cauliflower-iness in the rice..
