Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 large head cauliflower
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup finely diced onion
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
1 cup grated carrots
Sea salt
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives or scallions

Steps:

  • Cut the cauliflower into quarters through the stem. Trim and discard the core, then separate the head into florets. Place a third of the florets into a food processor and pulse in 2- to 3-second bursts until the cauliflower is finely chopped and has the consistency of couscous. Repeat twice, until all of the cauliflower is chopped. (One large head should yield approximately 8 cups chopped.)
  • Combine the cumin, pepper, turmeric, ginger and nutmeg in a small bowl and add 1 tablespoon water. Stir well to combine and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over high heat. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until tender but not browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until aromatic, 30 seconds more. Stir in the spice mixture and cook another 30 seconds.
  • Add the cauliflower, peas and carrots and stir well. Add some salt to taste. Cook, stirring often, until the cauliflower is tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowls and garnish with chives.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I'll try it again with less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cauliflower rice turned out really mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened. Maybe I cooked it for too long?

I thought this recipe was just okay. The cauliflower rice was a bit mushy and the spices were not very flavorful. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
