Ingredients

2 cups cauliflower rice
2 tablespoon peanuts (groundnuts)
½ cup cauliflower stocks (optional)
2 tablespoon ghee or coconut oil or butter(grass fed is better)
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
2 green chilies finely chopped
1 sprig curry leaves
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 medium onions finely chopped
salt to taste
2 tablespoon cilantro (coriander leaves) for garnish
1 teaspoon lime juice

Instructions

Firstly separate cauliflower into florets and stalks. Wash thoroughly.
Cut the cauliflower stalk into ½ inch cubes to resemble potatoes.
Grate florets with the help of a grater or food processor to resemble fine rice or couscous.
In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoon of ghee (alternatively you can use 1 tablespoon coconut oil with 1 tablespoon butter instead).
Roast the peanuts till you get nice golden brown color and set aside.
In the same frying pan, add mustard seeds once they crackle, add the green chili and curry leaves, and saute for a few seconds.
Next, add in the cauliflower stalks and cook till they are tender.
Add the onions and turmeric, season with some salt, and cook till the onions become soft.
Add in the cauliflower rice, salt, tablespoon of water, and mix well.
Cover with a lid and cook on medium-low heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in between.
Once the cauliflower is cooked, remove from heat and garnish with roasted peanuts, coriander, and lime juice, mix well. Serve hot.

Notes

Tips & Variations

You could also just buy cauliflower rice in the frozen section in Costco or Walmart and other supermarkets. I mostly prepare cauliflower rice at home and refrigerate it for 2-3 days.
You can also use roasted peanuts from the store.
