I find using cauliflower a very good substitute. There are lots of recipes where it replaces rice. There is a great tai red chicken curry recipe on here that I make all the time using cauli...you just put cauli in food processor and pulse a few times, then fry in butter...Another thing I do with the Cauli is when frying in butter, add some spring onion, chopped peppers and some herbs...sensational ?

Hi Erik!
If you aren't a vegan, then egg and cream (fatty milk products) are good alternatives.

Hi Eva!
Parsley, basil, oregano, cilantro, thyme or rosemary are a few ideas but please feel free to experiment with this recipe and use other herbs and try mixing different kinds. Good luck!
