Lemon and Herb Flavoured Cauliflower Rice
Use up the whole of your cauliflower – stalks and all – by making this lemon and herb cauliflower rice.
- Total Time: 5min
Ingredients
- 1 whole cauliflower
- 1 lemon
- Handful soft herbs, e.g. mint, parsley, basil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Grate, finely chop, or place cauliflower florets, stalks, ribs and leaves in a food processor, until it resembles a texture similar to chunky breadcrumbs.
- Place in a large microwavable bowl with a splash of water and cook for about 5 minutes, the steam produced as it microwaves will cook it. Stir and check if it is cooked; if needed microwave for longer.
- Zest and juice the lemon, and chop the herbs. Add to the cauliflower rice and mix well, season with salt and pepper.
- Add extra vegetables and serve as a summer salad or use with any dish as an alternative to rice.
Tips
- If you want to switch up the flavour, add your favourite spices instead to make a spiced cauliflower rice.
- Blitzed cauliflower can also be used to make tabbouleh or pizza bases.
