Fried, not roasted or grilled? :dubious:

Is my brain fried or does this sentence not make any sense?

It _is_ **Flytrap** after all. **Mrs. v3.0** probably forgot his meds again. 😉

Fried in corn oil. In an ideal world, it would have been deep fried, but I don’t have a fryer, so I used a couple of inches in a heavy pan. The process worked, even if the corn wasn’t so good. 😃

I actually understood that sentence. Clearly, I need to go to sleep.

I like the cauliflower “rice” when I’m making something with a sauce or when I can throw in a little chicken bouillon or whatever, for flavor. Otherwise, it’s kind of blah. But since I don’t eat plain rice because it’s kind of blah, it’s really six of one or half-dozen of the other. It’s just that the cauliflower has a lot fewer calories than the real stuff.

I make rice with sesame seed oil on the bottom of the rice maker, chicken bouillon, and a sliced garlic clove.
