Hi everyone, sorry it's been so long since my last blog, I have a drama exam coming up this week but hopefully by next weekend i'll be able to start posting regularly again.
Anyway, I thought i'd share my new favourite meal, cauliflower rice. This is a really yummy recipe that is perfect if you're in a rush, plus it's really low in calories! You can add different vegetables and spices depending on your mood such as garlic and ginger.
CHICKEN FRIED CAULIFLOWER "RICE"- CLEAN EATING RECIPE
1 medium to large sized head of cauliflower
2-3 tablespoons olive oil or preferred cooking oil
1 medium sized onion, diced
200g chicken breast, cut into pieces
2 large eggs, cracked & lightly beaten (set aside)
Coarse sea salt and cracked pepper, to taste
Soy sauce to taste
Grate the cauliflower using a food processor with the grater attachment or use a hand grater until it is at rice consistency.
Preheat two woks/pans over medium-high heat. Two pans are useful because if you overfill a pan you will cause the ingredients to steam instead of brown and fry. It is important to have room to spread out the ingredients while cooking.
Add about two tablespoons of oil and the onions to one of the hot pans. Cook the onions until soft and translucent.
In the other pan, cook the chicken pieces in a little oil until they are no longer pink in the middle. Set aside. Add the egg to the pan and scramble. Set aside.
Now add the cauliflower to the same pan, (add a little oil if needed) spread it out and cook the cauliflower, allowing it to brown a little. Stir frequently. Repeat this until evenly browned. It should take about 5 minutes. (Don’t forget to keep an eye on the pan with the onions).
Add the scrambled eggs with the cauliflower. Remove from heat when ready.
Now back to the pan with the onions: Continue to cook, And add the cooked chicken.
When both of the mixtures are ready (the cauliflower will be done first), combine them into one pan and stir until evenly mixed. Add salt, pepper and soy sauce to taste. Enjoy K.J. X
