INGREDIENTS

½ head cauliflower, separated into florets

1 tablespoon peanut oil

2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped

1 small garlic clove, minced

½ teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

½ teaspoon curry powder

¼ teaspoon turmeric

¼ teaspoon salt

1 medium apple, chopped

¼ cup salted peanuts

¼ cup raisins

1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped

DIRECTIONS

To make the cauliflower rice, place the florets in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until it looks like rice. Stop and stir as needed to get all the florets equally broken down.

In a large skillet, heat the peanut oil over medium heat and add the onion. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds more, stirring. Next, add the ginger and spices and stir to coat the onions. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring, but do not allow the onion to brown. Add all the cauliflower at once and stir well to incorporate the onions and spices. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently to keep from sticking. Turn off the heat and stir in peanuts, raisins and cilantro. Serve warm or at room temperature.
