Ingredients

• 2 lbs (7 - 8 inch in diameter) cauliflower head, separated into large florets
• 1 tbsp coconut or avocado oil
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 large garlic loves, minced
• 1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded & minced*
• 1 medium bell pepper, finely chopped
• 14 oz can coconut milk, full fat**
• 2 tsp red curry paste
• 2 tsp fish sauce
• 1 tsp maple syrup or raw honey
• 1/2 tsp + a pinch salt
• 3/4 cup peanuts
• 1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped
• Cooking spray (I use Misto)

Directions

• In a food processor, add cauliflower in batches and process until rice forms. Just watch closely and do not over process into mush. Transfer to a bowl.
• Preheat non-stick skillet on medium - high heat and spray with cooking spray. Add cauliflower rice and cook for 5 - 7 minutes or until a bit golden, stirring frequently and watching closely not to burn. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Return skillet on medium heat and swirl oil to coat (small bits of cauliflower “rice” are fine). Add onion, garlic, jalapeños and bell pepper; cook for 5 minutes or so, stirring occasionally.
• Add coconut milk, red curry paste, fish sauce, maple syrup and salt; stir and let simmer for a few minutes. Stir in “rice” and peanuts. Remove from heat and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve hot on its own or with extra brown rice for those extra hungry people, if desired.:) Goes well with {Lime Ginger Salmon|http://ifoodreal.com/lime-ginger-salmon-recipe/] or Coconut Chicken Tenders.
