This is a recipe I designed a when again but I determined to provide it again to light today since it is a corker of a dish. This paleo fried ‘rice’, designed with cauliflower, chicken, prawn, and delectable spices and chilli sauce, is impressed by nasi goreng.

Nasi goreng is Indonesia’s countrywide dish, and if you’ve been to Bali you would have experimented with it on additional than one particular occasion (or each individual solitary breakfast for me when I go there). In reality, most of you would’ve experimented with a similar dish in one particular type or another, as nasi goren pretty much means ‘fried rice’.

I appreciate the heat from sambal chilli and the sweetness of ketup manis sauce employed in the common recipe – it flavours the rice wonderfully. Plus, you get to blend in the runny yolk from the fried egg served on leading. Whilst I do eat white rice on occasion, I actually wanted to make a Paleo version of this magnificent Asian dish. Not positive I can contact my recipe nasi goreng as it does not in fact comprise the crucial ingredient – rice, or nasi in Indo and Malay. I employed finely diced cauliflower and carrots, furthermore a first rate amount of chicken and prawns for protein, and flavoured the dish with sambal oelek sauce.

Cook’s notes

Sambal is designed with a lot of purple chillies, garlic, shallots, and lime. There are quite a few variants, but you really should have no problem finding a normal sambal oelek in supermarkets and Asian grocers. You can make your individual and shop it in a jar in the fridge to use in stir fries and other dishes.

Rather of employing the super sweet ketup manis sauce, which is basically sweet soy sauce, I employed Tamari wheat-totally free soy sauce and honey.





It took me 30 minutes to make this dish, but as I am a bit of a rocket in the kitchen area, enable oneself 30 to forty minutes. I employed chicken thighs since I find the meat is additional tender, but you can conveniently use chicken breast or turkey meat. For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken and prawns, and use mushrooms and excess vegetables alternatively.
