This easy Broccoli and Cauliflower Rice is a great substitute for rice to use in many bowls or with dals and curries, burritos or other places you use rice.

The key to a fluffy rice is steaming and fluffing. The cauliflower rice needs more steaming time than cooking on direct heat time. Fluff the the rice in between and again after steaming for best results.
