Well I made my mujadarra with caulirice tonight … I have missed it sooooo much! I used to make a huge batch with Basmati rice, and then eat it for lunch all week!
Cauliflower rice, from 1/2 a head — about 3 cups "rice"
Lentils to taste and tolerance (I used about 120 g)
large onion sliced into 1/2 rings
olive oil
whole cumin (1/2 tsp or to taste)
hot red pepper
allspice (1/4 tsp), or garam masala, or cinnamon
Boil lentils in large vol of water for 20 min and drain
slice onion and fry with spices until brown.
Saute caulirice in butter or olive oil, and add lentils.
Top with browned seasoned onions to serve.
Do calculate your carbs and eat cautious portions — the onions and lentils make it carby. But, it is SO good!
I served mine with meatballs in a spicy sauce, and fresh spinach.
