Coconut Cashew Cauliflower Rice

I made this cauliflower rice dish to go with Thai green curry. It’s missing the acidic element of my cilantro lime cauliflower rice, but it offers more of a textural difference. Toasting the coconut shreds is optional.

1 head cauliflower, grated or finely chopped (3-4 cups)
3 green onions, sliced
1 cup unsweetened coconut shreds
1/2 cup toasted cashews, chopped
2 Tbs full fat coconut milk
1 Tbs coconut oil
2 tsp salt
1 tsp white pepper (optional)

In a large sauté pan combine coconut oil and coconut milk and heat on medium high until melted. Add cauliflower, coconut shreds, salt, and white pepper. Sauté until the cauliflower is cooked through, 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the green onion and cashews. Serve with Indian, Southeast Asian, South American, or Caribbean dishes as an alternative to coconut rice.
