I have created a vegan fried rice recipe in the past, but this one is different.
It is RAW.
All of the enzymes, vitamins and minerals stay in tact, which means your body is being deeply nourished and fed on a cellular level. You’re welcome 😉
So how do you make a raw version of fried rice? Simple!
Instead of cooked rice you’re going to pulse up cauliflower and zucchini, and then you’re going to mix in marinate vegetables. You can use the vegetables in the recipe provided, or you can choose your favourites. Maybe you’d like to use broccoli or red onion instead. Play around and have fun with it. I marinated the veggies overnight to allow the flavours of the sauce to infuse in to them. This also works to soften the vegetables so they have a more cooked-like texture.
The addition of pineapple gives this dish a hint of sweetness while not overpowering the prominent fresh asian flavours.
