Coriander Cauliflower Rice Ingredients

This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for coriander lime cauliflower rice, the role of each ingredient in the recipe, and alternative options. For measurement, please refer to the recipe card below.

• olive oil – Or any cooking oil of your choice, such as avocado oil. I prefer to avoid the use of seed oils, such as rapeseed oil, corn oil or soybean oil.
• garlic – Use fresh minced garlic or canned minced garlic.
• Cauliflower Fried Rice – You can prepare your own cauliflower rice (simply pulse cauliflower florets in a food processor or grind with a box grinder until it reaches the size of rice) or buy pre-made cauliflower rice, fresh or frozen. This recipe requires 4 cups of cauliflower rice, which is roughly equivalent to a head of cauliflower.
• lime – Use whole limes because we use the peel and juice at the same time. If you don’t have limes but lemons around you, they can work, albeit with a different taste.
• Sea salt and black pepper
• Fresh coriander – A must-have for Cilantro Lime Cauliflower Rice! However, if you are one of the people who thinks coriander tastes soapy, please feel free to change to other fresh herbs, such as parsley or chives.

Variety: Add onions or spices. Add onion, diced and fry until fragrant, then add garlic. A great spice pairing includes chili, crushed red pepper flakes, cumin or chili powder.

Why is my cauliflower rice wet?

Cauliflower rice may be moist for several reasons:

• Cooked for too long. This is the number one cause of soaking cauliflower rice. Overcooking will make it moist and mushy.
• The heat is too low. Cauliflower rice is best cooked over medium heat. If you prefer to brown slightly, you can even cook it over medium high heat. If the heat is too low, it will become too soft and the excess water will not evaporate.
• cover. Do not put the lid on when cooking the cauliflower rice. This will cause it to steam and become watery.

• Meal preparation: Make cauliflower rice 3-5 days in advance, then divide it into meal preparation containers with your favorite protein.
