In this Induction-friendly recipe video, I demonstrate one of the most versatile side dishes or main dishes on the Low Carb lifestyle. From Chinese main meal or accompaniment to an Italian replacement for pasta, this faux rice recipe is versatile to say the least. Note: for the Italian alternative, I would eliminate the Chinese flavorings (Soy Sauce, meat, sesame oil, and egg) in favor of more garlic and Italian seasoning and spices. For Induction, you are limited to 1 cup of Cauliflower per day.
This recipe was developed from the original at Linda’s Low Carb recipe site. (http://genaw.com/lowcarb/fried_rice.html)

Here is the ingredients:
2 TBS Cooking oil
4 slices Bacon
1 Medium Size head of Cauliflower (~2 pounds), grated
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 oz of Ham
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 egg, beaten
4 green onions, chopped
Black Pepper to taste

* Heat the oil and bacon in large skillet until bacon is slightly browned.
* Grate Cauliflower in Food Processor
* Add Cauliflower, Ham, and Garlic and cook until the cauliflower begins to stick (internal water is evaporated) and getting browned
* Add Soy Sauce and Sesame Oil, heat for 1-2 minutes
* Drag Cauliflower to half of the pan
* Cook beaten egg until scrambled, and mix with Cauliflower mixture.
* Add Green Onion, and Pepper to taste
* Cook 4-5 more minutes

Makes 6 servings

That looks pretty good and I’m going to be making it *soon*. Though I think I’ll be kicking up the Asian taste a notch or two with a dash or two each of curry powder & ground ginger.

I only use it by the tsp, so the overcharge is not that bad. I agree though $3 for 6 oz is over-priced.

If you’re serious about the sesame seed oil, you have to buy it in bulk from the Korean grocery store. Those tiny bottles from the regular grocery store are overpriced.

Yep, I just wanted to confirm that 26.2 is the length in miles of a marathon. The sweatshirt I was wearing was a souvenir of my running the Des Moines Marathon. Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!

I was such a Chinese food addict before Atkins that I was really missing the flavor and smells of Chinese. This recipe goes a long way to putting down those cravings.

We actually had this very conversation last night at a family Thanksgiving Mexican feast. They hadn’t made it as such, but I agree it could definitely be used for Spanish rice.
