When I started a low carb diet over 4 years ago I heard about cauliflower rice as a low carb substitute so I tried it. The version I tried was vacuum packed and was very unpleasant, so I made my own, even using a food processor it was very uneven and generated lots of mess. Since then I have just been roasting the florets which works well and is very suitable for a curry accompaniment. However, recently a friend suggested trying frozen cauliflower rice which comes in a bag containing 4 sachets, each of which is a 125g portion with 3.1g carbs. Mine came from Tesco, I am told the Morrison's version is similar. This is very good and also very convenient, it only takes 3 minutes to microwave from frozen. Strangely it seems to be only stalk, no sign of the "flowers" but is cut into perfect 2mm cubes unlike my homemade uneven version. Maybe everyone else has already tried it, but if not, it is well worth a go.
