Default Refried rice

Gotta streaming channel fer Chinese cooking. It's got 26 recipes fer
refried rice. None of them is by a Chinese person!

No kidding. Buncha white folks, buncha Indian folks, but no Chinese
ppl (unless you count the ONE person that is mostly wht and Korean(?)
mix). Even one Greek guy!

Anywho, some good recipes. One is even Fried rice, w/ no rice! Uses
bits of cauliflower, instead (FP).

I'll prolly make shrimp fried rice, tomorrow. Not hungry enough,
today. Got all the ingedients, except fresh ginger. Got ginger
pwdr, though.

Told you so!

You should get along just fine with people who like riced cauliflower.
I love cauliflower but I don't pretend it's rice. Red beans &
cauliflower just doesn't have the same ring to it...

I really enjoy cauliflower if I have not had it for a while. Then I
have it once and and lose interest in having it again for a long time.
My wide sometimes buys it when she does the shopping. I don't think I
have every picked it up on my own.... That being said. I have sliced it
up and smothered it in yogurt and curry powder and then grilled it....
very tasty.

I like fresh cauliflower in season, I separate the flowets and eat
them raw as crudites with a dipping dressing, or marinated... I think
cooking cauliflower ruins it. And it's too expensive to make into
tiny bits pretending it's rice, it's NOT RICE!

The only time I've had cauliflower is raw pieces in
a salad. The only good part was the salad dressing
coating them.

Cauliflower is kind of a weak and watery vegetable. That's why
I prefer to roast or grill it. Brings out its best characteristics.

That's it. Boiling it is a ticket back to the 50s.
