Ingredients

Instructions

  • First, preheat your oven to 200 Celsius or 400 Fahrenheit. Prepare all of the ingredients. Frozen rice does not need to be thawed, as the fully heated oven helps against it being mushy, and water evaporates quickly. 
  • Take out your package of frozen cauliflower rice and try to break the big frozen clumps still in the bag. Using the back of the spatula, ensure all the rice is separated. Place onto the baking sheet. 
  • Add the garlic cloves pressed onto the rice and add salt and pepper. Mix and spray a bit with olive oil. This will help to get a bit more crunch to the rice. Mix all thoughtfully. 
  • Place into the fully preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Once baked, using a spatula, scrape all of the cauliflower rice from the sides of the baking sheet and mix it. The dark pieces are the crunchiest and most delicious.

Notes

  • Parchment paper - Even though I use parchment paper in almost all recipes, it will make your rice soggier when used here. 
  • Garlic - Swap with garlic powder if you wish.
  • Herbs and spices - Additional spices or herbs can be added depending on your preference. 
  • Cook time - This might vary depending on how much rice you will make. Also, using fresh or frozen rice makes the length of baking different.
