Cauliflower/Paleo Rice Recipe

An amazing alternative for starchy rice is cauliflower rice, your normal white rice contains a whooping 126 calories in 100g where the cauliflower alternative only contains 25!

So how do we get rice from a cauliflower, easy!
Take 1 normal cauliflower, break the heads off, pop them in a blender, blitz until they look like tiny bits of rice/couscous, pop that in a bowl or microwave steamer, steam dry (don't add water) in the microwave for 5 minutes, hey presto plain white cauliflower rice.
Now this is fine if your mixing it with the main part of the dish, but to give it a really nice flavour do the following:

Heat 1 tsp of coconut oil in a deep pan or wok, add into that a little curry powder, some finely chopped onion, a pinch of cayenne pepper, cumin and coriander, plus a touch of garlic and ground black pepper, all of these to taste.

A really flavoursome and filling alternative to that nasty old white rice!
