I have put frozen cauliflower rice in an air fryer dish , and cooked in the air fryer first before frying it. This helps with drying the cauliflower out.
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. What temp and for low long did you have the frozen cauli rice in the airfryer?
@@lily5952interested too
We had this tonight with scallops and asparagus. It was sooo good. My husband who never eats veggies had 3 helpings. Thank you for sharing the wonderful recipes.
Cauliflower is one of my fave veggies. It’s sooo good
I cooked it and it tastes amazing! THANK YOU for sharing this with us, keep doing what you are doing!!
Great job Annie!
You are the AWESOMEST! YOU HELPED ME! GRATEFUL!💯❤️😘
My fave form of cauliflower rice (altho fresh is obvi best) is the vacuum pack stuff… I get the FullGreen brand from Walmart on the shelf … 100% cauliflower… I think in the canned veggies aisle. It has way less moisture than the frozen. Then I proceed to also dry in a skillet like here… takes less time. This week I made Nori rolls with it… 100% seaweed sheets are 1 carb and a huge source of iodine and b12. I also think adding sauteed onion with it covers any funky flavor… cheers people :)
I love using the nori to make my keto sushi, as well as rolling up tuna salad. Great alternative to even the best keto bread.
Never heard of that brand. Now I'm going to get some since it's shelf stable. Thanks!
I like your sense of humor about carrots and soja sauce, some people are too serious about little things
There are actual reasons for avoiding soy, just as there are reasons for avoiding seed oils and many other things we should avoid.
Soy's phytoestrogens have been linked to issues with thyroid function, cancers and tumors (especially thyroid, breast and uterine), and infertility. Soy interferes with absorption of minerals and digestion of protein. And it can be toxic to the liver.
It's hardly like the "microwave is the devil" joke and it's not such a "little thing" to someone already suffering from thyroid or digestive issues or infertility.
But, yes, she's absolutely spot on about the carrots.
When we start out we have to be overly serious for awhile, than we can mellow out when we approach our health goals.

Good point!
Made two of your recipes today, Annie. Your Sesame Ginger Asian Meatballs and BBQ Cheeseburger Meatloaf. I didn't intend to make 2 recipes with ground meat n the same day, but you know how it goes. Got the pork out and defrosted it Thursday for Friday and got the pre-made meatloaf out to defrost on Friday for today (Sat). Didn't get the meatballs made yesterday so here I am. No complaints, though! I like both recipes so I'm a happy camper! Thanks!
Very nice tips. I need this.
Secret to cauliflower rice is to dry it out. When dry it absorbs whatever flavor. I’ll cook 6-8 packages and spread on baking sheet. Put in oven or just in fridge. Drastically reduces water. Makes great stir fry or Mexican rice
Exactly! I like the idea of drying it out in the oven or the fridge.
What temp do you dry it at and for how long?
This was so what I needed! I cooked some cauliflower rice and stored the rest in the fridge but the stinkness was terrible the other day
I like to blot the cauliflower with a paper towel while pan frying to help get the moisture out.
Have you thought about sweating it ? (Like how Zucchini is done)
This tasted great, I started looking into cauliflower today because of its low calorie. The 2 eggs might have added 150-160 calories BUT! As a whole this dish would have been more with regular rice and I’ve been eating too much white rice as of late. I left the sugar out and still tasted sweet, probably the carrots doing its thing.
Oh thank you
Typically sesame seed oil is added at the end of food preparation due to it loosing flavor when cooked. When you made this dish did your oil lose flavor?
I don't understand how people say they don't like the taste of cauliflower rice. With some turmeric and lemon I think it tastes better than regular rice.
I microwave cauliflower rice to make hot. Then stir in some butter and season it. Tastes great as a side or base onto which a chicken and bacon casserole can be dumped. My guests are surprised how good everything is.
Hey!
For how many minutes do you put the cauliflower rice in the microwave?
We tried this the other night. Hubby LOVES the “dry fry method.” He has even asked to have “that delicious cauliflower rice again tonight!”
Always enjoy and appreciate your vidoes, thank you so much. Have used several of your recipes. Question, I'm in New Zealand, how do we get LMNT here, I've not been successful when I've tried.❤
You'd be better off asking LMNT's customer service.
“It smells like a gym sock farted.” 😂 Thanks for the snicker and for the tips!
Finally a recipe for cauliflower rice i can get behind!
You have the best sense of humor on TH-cam- Benny Hill would be proud of you 😬
Hi Annie! This looks great. I have frozen cauliflower rice from Sprouts.
Should I defrost the cauliflower rice first? Or should I add the frozen cauliflower rice to the pan?
Thank you ever so much. Happy new year.
No, add the frozen cauliflower to the pan. Cook it until all of the moisture is cooked off or almost cooked off since you might be adding other veggies that need to be cooked. It will get fluffy as it cooks. Stir it frequently too
@@KetoFocus thank you ever so much! I’m going to try your recipe
"gym sock farted". That line made my morning.
I love cauliflower. I eat it raw with salt and lemon or lightly cooked (3-5 min in boiling water) with olive oil, salt and either lemon juice or vinegar. Delicious. I don't like it at all if it's cooked for more than 5min. haven't tried it as a rice substitute yet.
"It smells like a gym sock farted." 😂😂😂😂 OMG, I'm dying here! You are so funny!
you can also wet chop the cauliflower in a blender (vitamix)
I just made this fried cauli rice adding a package of ground turkey, browned. It's really good! Now a question...if I dehydrated the riced cauli in a food dehydrator, would it not smell when rehydrated?
Have you attempted dehydrating yet?
@@AJ-ku9jz i haven't.
Didn’t know that about salt. I’m not low carb or keto, but had to change my diet drastically 3 weeks ago after developing hives and histamine intolerance. I ate nothing but veggies and some chicken (and oats, once) for a couple of weeks. Then one evening last week, I felt weak and had a weird headache so I feared my blood pressure might be going up from all the salt I was using on my veggies since it was the only way I could flavor my food. I checked my blood pressure and it was 80/60. I was afraid my adrenals or thyroid might be failing. But I also felt low blood sugar. This explains it.
Ive been making a pretty damn good cauliflour fried rice at home, with WOK HEI flavor! Yes, yes... you should be impressed haha.
LMnT is good, but way too pricey for those of us on a minimal income. I use Redmond salt, which seems to keep the cramps away. Sorry, LMNT
Check out saltt from the makers of keto chow... double the electrolytes of lmnt, and it's cheaper per stick...about 1.00 a serving and you can buy variety packs too... no need to spend 117.00
I have been a salty fox for years. 1/4 tsp. of Celtic Sea Salt. Suck on it as long as you can. Chase it with iced water. 22 years & counting ❤
@willo8794 absolutely... but that is just sodium... these supplements have magnesium and potassium too ❤️
@@jujube2407
I take magnesium & potassium supplements as well as drinking Propel or another electrolyte drink.
If you can't afford or don't want to pay for LMNT, they publish their very simple recipe on their website so you can make your own which is exactly like their plain version.
The rice cauliflower I’ve tried (and everything else cooked with cauliflower) tastes just like cauliflower. I like cauliflower … raw with ranch dip. I’ll give this a try and see what happens.
Yes! Raw cauli with ranch is so good!
FYI Kikkoman do a gluten free soy sauce which is zero sugar and lower carbs than the regular soy
The problem isn't gluten - it's the soy itself. Coconut aminos are a much healthier choice and actually taste better in foods.
@@Lucinda_Jackson apparently, fermented soy for the sauce does not have the negatives of raw soy or soy based products
@@dr69dav still an allergen
Don’t we have to wash cauliflowers in boiling water before using it?
I don't know if I've been buying the wrong sesame oil or what , but it tastes bitter. I tried 2 different kinds and had to throw out 2 recipes. Can I ask what brand you use ? Thank you so much !
Olive oil is to bitter too.
There are two varieties. Regular and Toasted. The "rule" is that you'd use regular for any cooking, but toasted for finishing. I only ever use toasted. It gives things a nice, warm flavor, but you just use small amounts.
I didn't know that ! Thank you !@@Lucinda_Jackson
I liked this video just for the gym sock farted. Lol. 😊
I can hear "hiyaaa" from Uncle Roger now...
This didn't turn out great for me, I was really disappointed. With such little liquid to work with, the vegetables barely cooked and I had to 'dry out' the cauliflower for so long that it left a kind of dried out smell, on the cauliflower itself and nevermind the veg's not cooking. Next time I am going to pre-steam my veggies for a few minutes before adding them to the dried out cauliflower.
I followed the instructions to the tea. Still didn’t like it much. Have had better luck with other recipes with cauliflower rice.
Missing a lil Bacon
Oh I like the way you think!!! 😃
OK, I have to admit that I upvoted you after you said the word farted. 🤣
We need more potassium from gerson therapy and not sodium....
WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH CARROTS?!
I'm confused. Most people eat cauliflower rice because it's healthier so your solution is to basically make it unhealthy fried rice? I feel like the title is deceptive because you're turning it from rice into a different dish.
SQUEEZE the water out of the frozen bag of cauliflower rice when it comes out of the microwave!!!
This lady is absolutely obsessed with old gym socks. Super wierd.
Too many sock stories repetitive
Noted. Next time I will only talk about socks once. 🧦
Stinky socks, fart? Lost my appetite.
I don't think saying 'fart' etc about food is appealing. Bad language or comparing cauliflower to a smelly sock or 'funk', is just uncalled for. Vulgar language is unnecessary in a food programme. Calling soya sauce like the devil?
Cruciferous vegetables, which include cauliflower, do smell like farts. It's not unnecessary to mentiom that because she is expressly telling us that there is a way to make it more palatable (since it's really popular on a keto diet and its a healthy veggie). She's making a joke about the soy sauce being the devil because a lot of keto people act like fundamentalist nutcases on what is "keto" and isn't. Soy is supposedly bad for us according to those people (unless you have a food sensitivity or allergy to soy, it's really fine).
N😊one said you have to watch this channel. If you don’t like what you see, simply scroll. We are not all the same nor should we be forced to to think like you. Get a sense of humor or scroll….💃🏻💃🏻
I bet you are fun at parties
Soy sauce as the devil is a hyperbolic phrasing to emphasise the demonisation of small amounts of non-keto foods, or foods that are often warned against in sections of this community.
Cauliflower smells worse than a smelly sockx my house smelt awful and I can't put it in the indoor bin because it smells the house out.
This is a casual laid back TH-cam channel, maybe you'd be better at home where it's more serious and miserable?
