Ingredients
- 1 head (~600g) Medium cauliflower
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 Small onion, finely chopped (optional)
- 1 clove Garlic, minced (optional)
- 1 tsp Lemon juice (optional)
- 1 tbsp Fresh dill, chopped (optional)
- to taste Salt and black pepper
Method
- Cut cauliflower into florets. Pulse in a food processor (or grate) until it resembles rice — stop before it turns to puree.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion (and garlic if using) until soft and translucent, 2-3 minutes.
- Add the riced cauliflower. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until just tender. Don't overcook or it turns mushy.
- Season with salt and pepper. Stir in a few drops of lemon juice and dill if using, then remove from heat.
