In this quick and easy recipe, ingredients are kept simple for a cauliflower “rice” that blends seamlessly with any of your favorite sauces and spices.
I recommend making large batches of riced cauliflower at a time. You can refrigerate leftovers for a couple days (or freeze them for longer) and then just heat, season and serve.
For this simple recipe, ghee and onions are used to create a versatile buttery and savory base. Ghee has a high smoke point, which is great for sautéing over high heat. You can also stir in herbs like thyme, rosemary or basil.

Start by placing cauliflower florets in a food processor and pulse until it becomes crumbly and rice-like. Heat ghee in a skillet over medium heat and add chopped onions. Sauté until the onions are fragrant and starting to soften; about five minutes. Stir in the cauliflower rice, season with salt and pepper, and continue to cook for 5 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. Serve immediately.
Tip: Want something other than cauliflower? Zucchini, carrots, sweet potato and broccoli stalks are also great riced!
