The best Keto Cauliflower rice Indian Recipe <3 !
Presenting you the Tomato Masala “Rice” which is flavourful, tangy, aromatic and makes you forget Cauliflower 😛
Keto Cauliflower rice Indian Recipe-
‘Indian Masala Bhaat’ is a famous recipe and something I grew up eating 😛 Being a Maharasthrian, this recipe is a must if we have any festival or even Pooja. I add all sorts of vegetables with the masala and it is often a flavourful and aromatic Rice bowl. This time, I wish I could add french beans and some Ivy gourd along with some cabbage; but I didn’t have any vegetables at hand. You can definitely add it with the tomato.
The Deal with Tomato –
Tomato is a slightly at a higher range when it comes to carbohydrates. Some Keto Nazis ( Yeah I invented this word for people who start lecturing you when they see you eating tomato or small serving of carrot ) will be very angry and may have existential Crisis seeing the recipe. They may even dislike the recipe and then run into the kicthen to make it secretly 😛
For me, tomatoes have always been IIFYM vegetable. The fact it is tastier than other low-carb vegetables and is often a recurring ingredient in Indian Cuisine , I choose to have it in moderation. Also, I love it and I lost maximum of the fat without counting macros 😉 For me, restriction is always robbing us off the tasty food and making us sick inside. I am a huge supporter of ‘One-day-at-a-time’ mentality. I don’t believe in being sad about my food choices. I believe everybody is different, and it should not be so hard to accept the fact that we may have different choices and metabolism.
So, if you have anyone lecture you about Tomatoes, just ask them to get a life, really !

Hello,
any recommendation on how to make the cauliflower look like rice? Little confused on how you did that?
Hey hi Anila ! You can see my lemon Turmeric rice video on Youtube. I use food processor with the grater. You can also get the box grater which is available on Amazon
Loved loved loved this!! I used cauliflower broccoli rice since that’s what I got at the supermarket, and the flavor satisfied my Indian spice-loving tooth. I hope you’ll keep posting keto Indian foods, especially vegetarian ones, as I’ve loved everything of yours that I’ve tried so far!
