Ingredients




1 head cauliflower, stems removed and cut into florets
3 strips of thick cut bacon, cut into 1-inch squares
1 ounce fresh ginger, sliced
5 garlic cloves, smashed and roughly chopped
1 fresh red chili, sliced or 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons coconut aminos
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

1 Soak cauliflower florets in salt water. Meanwhile, prepare bacon, ginger, garlic and chili pepper. 2 Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add bacon and cook until it starts to sweat, about 3 minutes. Add ginger and stir until the bacon turns dark pink, about 2 minutes. 3 Drain the cauliflower and add it to the skillet. Sauté for 1 minute, reduce the heat to medium, cover and cook the cauliflower for 5 minutes. 4 Uncover, the cauliflower should be slightly brown by now. Turn the heat back on medium-high. Add garlic and chili pepper. Sauté again until all ingredients are distributed evenly. 5 Add coconut aminos and kosher salt. Keep stirring for 30 seconds to allow the flavor to blend in. 6 Dish. Season with freshly ground black pepper if desired. Enjoy over rice.
