I have been craving fried rice. Just the variety of flavor in it! The color and texture of it. I have seen a few recipes for cauliflower rice but nothing really intrigued me. So I came up with this. It turned out great. The flavor was so wonderful, with the salty bacon, the sweet carrots, the spice of the ginger, & the fresh pop or the parsley. We all ate it up and loved it. I even went looking for left overs the next day but my daughter said, "Oh sorry I ate it all. That was so good!" I call that a win!
Ingredients
1 head of cauliflower riced
1 bunch of fresh italian parsley
1 large yellow onion chopped small
2 green onions chopped
6 slices of bacon chopped
4 large carrots chopped small
10 mushrooms sliced
Salt to taste
2 tbs apple cider vinegar
2 tbs coconut aminos
1 splash of fish sauce
1 tbs of ginger paste
1 bunch of fresh italian parsley
1 large yellow onion chopped small
2 green onions chopped
6 slices of bacon chopped
4 large carrots chopped small
10 mushrooms sliced
Salt to taste
2 tbs apple cider vinegar
2 tbs coconut aminos
1 splash of fish sauce
1 tbs of ginger paste
Directions
Trim all the greens off your cauliflower. Break it apart into florets. In a food processor add about half of the cauliflower. Pulse until small rice pieces remain. Now repeat with the other half.
Cut your bacon pieces in half and then cut into 1/4 inch pieces. Pan fry them unit crisp. Remove bacon pieces but leave your bacon fat in the pan. Now finely chop your carrots. I quartered mine length wise before chopping to get nice small pieces. Now add the carrots to the pan with bacon fat and pan fry until almost soft. While those are frying finely chop your onion, green onion, chop up your parsley and slices your mushrooms.
Now add your onion to the carrots and pan fry until both carrots and onion are soft. Now add your mushrooms and green onion. Pan fry for a couple of min. Now turn your heat up and add your rice, bacon and a 1/4 cup of finely chopped parsley.
Pan fry for a couple of min. Now add in vinegar, aminos, fish sauce and ginger paste. Mix well and salt to taste. Add pepper if you have reintroduced. Serve and top with a little finely chopped parsley. Enjoy!
