What were you using rice for? If it was to go with a curry, I often serve a mix of fried red, green and yellow peppers with crushed garlic thrown in for 90 seconds and stirred around with a pinch of Cayenne pepper. Hardly any carbs and really tasty.
I do serve rice (the real thing) depending on the recipe, but then I’m T1 and can take the hit.
You can forget cauliflower rice, it’s completely the wrong mouth feel, and gets mushed up with the sauce on top. Konjac rice is made from the root of the eponymous tree and like a lot of oriental vegetables it is preserved in brine, which gives it that odd fishy smell that you can’t get rid of, no matter what you do. I think it’s an abomination. Tesco warn you about that smell, I think to stop folk sending it back as rotten.
Rice, of course, should be fluffy and just cooked served separately*, but in this country we’ve been conditioned to plonking the sauce on top. I blame Vesta for that, if you are old enough to remember those horrible Vesta curries.
* I’ve got an electric rice cooker that does that perfectly
