Ingredients

  • Large head cauliflower stalk and leaves removed, chopped into florets- 1
  • Shrimp deveined and peeled, tails intact- 1/2 pound or 500 gm
  • Unsalted butter- 1 tbsp.
  • Garlic cloves chopped- 4-5
  • Fresh lemon juice- 2 tbsp.
  • Grated Parmesan cheese- 4 tbsp.

  • FOR SERVING
  • Lemon wedges- as needed

Instructions

  • Using a food processor with the grater attachment, grate the cauliflower until it is the same consistency of rice.
  • Transfer the cauliflower to a kitchen towel and press to remove extra liquid, which can make your cauliflower fried rice very soft and wet.
  • In a large pan or skillet melt 1 tbsp. of butter, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  • Add the shrimp and cook for about 4- 5 minutes ( depending on the size of shrimp), or until shrimp is totally pink and is no longer grey.
  • Add the cauliflower rice & the grated Parmesan cheese to the pan, mix well and cook 6-8 minutes, then garnish with fresh dill leaves and thai red chili. Serve with lemon wedges.
  • Enjoy!
