4 servings
- 1 medium head cauliflower (about 2 lb), cut into florets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste
- ¼ tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1–2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Working in two batches, pulse the cauliflower florets in a food processor until broken down into pieces roughly the size of rice grains, about 8–10 short pulses per batch. Alternatively, grate the florets on the large holes of a box grater. Spread the riced cauliflower on a clean kitchen towel and press firmly to remove excess moisture.

Heat the olive oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant and just beginning to turn golden at the edges, about 1 minute — watch closely, as minced garlic can brown quickly.
