Keto Shilaplavi (Cauliflower Rice)
Spiced Lamb and Cauliflower Rice Pilaf
Yes, with a tweak: strictly substitute cauliflower rice for traditional rice. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Georgian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-modified version of the traditional Georgian pilaf, replacing rice with cauliflower rice. Succulent lamb pieces are slow-cooked with onions, garlic, and traditional Georgian spices like cumin, coriander, and barberry, then gently mixed with seasoned cauliflower rice.
Key ingredients
Lamb shoulder/leg, cauliflower rice, onions, garlic, lamb broth, clarified butter (ghee), cumin, coriander, salt, black pepper, a pinch of barberry (optional), fresh herbs for garnish.
How to make it keto
Strictly substitute cauliflower rice for traditional rice. Ensure no carrots or other root vegetables are added, or only in minimal quantities. Verify no sugar in any marinades or broths.
Watch out for
Cauliflower rice, onions, potential hidden sugar in commercial broths or spice blends, small amounts from barberries.
