Love cauliflower rice fried with butter. My other go to substitute is breaking a cauliflower into florets, season with salt and pepper and roasting in a little olive oil
Lol that sounds like something out of the board game CluedoIf you don't have a food processor/don't like to spend as long cleaning it as you did using it, and for various reasons don't want to use a knife, you can put the cauliflower in a bag, freeze it, then hit it with a blunt instrument until it's the texture you want. All the mess is contained in the bag.

Cut the cauliflower into florets, add a little of your preferred oil, salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Good mix and into the oven for 3 to 40 minutes depending on the size of the chunks. I do the same with broccoli too, it just needs less time but comes out with crispy bits.I should try that. How do you do it?

I usually use 200c for everythingWhat temperature oven, please?

If I bought a cauliflower I know half would end up brown and in the bin lol. Cost effectiveness has to be weighed against possible waste (if you're lazy like me)And yes I should hang my head in shame being a trained chef and working in kitchens for my early career but I stand by my decision lol. I use it that rarely that it’s actually more cost effective for me than buying cauliflower as I don’t use that much either

Crikey I cannot imagine dumping cauliflower it’s my favourite versatile veg. Often buy two a week, I know they are expensive but I offset that against the hundreds of things I no longer eat. I tried the frozen stuff, but don’t have a microwave and found it too mushy. Plus no good for lovely roast or consuming raw. A great go to when I don’t want to bother injecting insulin.
I will go down to 180 for some things and up to 220 for others according to instructions and when I used to bake it would be around 170. Since my diagnosis I haven't baked apart from trying a keto mug cake last week in the microwave. It was good.I use 250C for bread, for roasting veg for soup 160C. For roasting meat it would depend on what meat. Brisket would get 160C for a long time, I think my friend uses 220C for roasting bone-in rib. For a square piece of pork belly I give it a long slow simmer with water about 1/2 way up, then let it cool and let the skin dry, and give it long enough in a 220C oven to make the crackling and get the rest hot through. Yorkshires need 220-230C.
The concept of 'Cauliflower Rice' seemed alien but I finally riced / grated a cauliflower today, many months after getting diagnosed with Type 2. Sautéed with black pepper and a little Soy Sauce at the end. It was far more satisfying than I expected so thought it was something to share.
I buy and blitz a whole one when they are large and cheap. I bag the results in individual portions and freeze.If I bought a cauliflower I know half would end up brown and in the bin lol. Cost effectiveness has to be weighed against possible waste (if you're lazy like me)
Great idea, but I still like to use the pre prepared, just a personal choiceI buy and blitz a whole one when they are large and cheap. I bag the results in individual portions and freeze.
Quick, cheap, convenient, easy
