Cooking Steps

  1. Prepare the Cauliflower Rice

    Wash the cauliflower thoroughly, rinse, and separate the florets. Chop the florets finely or place them in a food processor until they resemble rice; if using a food processor, do it in batches and be careful not to over-process.

  2. Toast the Nuts

    In a heated skillet, lightly toast the almonds or your preferred nuts.

  3. Sauté Onions and Garlic

    Heat a pot and sauté the onion in the butter and olive oil until soft, then add the garlic and let it brown slightly.

  4. Cook the Cauliflower

    Next, add the chopped or processed cauliflower, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Cooking time may vary depending on the heat of the pan; the goal is to cook it until al dente and avoid the texture of mushy 'cauliflower rice'.

  5. Finish the Dish

    Add the raisins and sliced almonds, mix well, and serve hot!
