Plus, a delicious cauliflower rice recipe you should try!

But would you believe that no soy sauce was used in the tapa? Or that the rice is not even rice? Or even that the onions weren't even cooked?

Instead, a homemade aminos was used instead of soy sauce to marinate the tapa while the "faux rice" is made from cauliflower (but doesn't taste like cauliflower!), and the onions, while raw, doesn't bite back because it’s been pickled, giving an already colorful bowl a vibrant color contrast that only whets one's appetite. 

Not only is this a delicious-looking dish, none of the substitutes affect how tasty and filling the dish is. Now, that's one dish we'd like more servings of, please. 

Green Pastures is located at Net Park Building, 5th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City. Visit facebook.com/greenpasturesph for more information and other branch locations.
