Ingredients

  • Cauliflower - 300 grams
  • Ground beef - 200 grams
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Onion - 1 medium, finely chopped
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Cinnamon - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Allspice - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Black pepper - to taste
  • Parsley - 2 tablespoons, chopped
  • Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon

Steps

  1. Begin by washing and trimming the cauliflower, then cut it into florets. Use a food processor to pulse the florets until they resemble rice grains.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the ground beef, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  5. Season the meat with cinnamon, allspice, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
  6. Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet, stirring to combine it with the meat mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley and lemon juice for freshness.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
