Watch me cook this dish above!
lil carb Cauliflower Fried "Rice"- Serves 3-4
1 head cauliflower- grated
1 medium onion, diced into large chunks
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 cup frozen peas and carrots
3-4 eggs, scrambled/mixed
3-4 Tbsp soy sauce
Salt & Pepper to taste
**The best way to prepare this "rice" is to prepare all the veggies ahead of time so you can just drop them in the sauté pan or wok - this doesn't take long to cook at all! The key is to mix it constantly because the heat will be on high.
Start out with grating a whole head of cauliflower. Put aside.
Cut up an onion into a big dice. Mince up the garlic. Put aside.
Get the frozen peas and carrots into a measuring cup.
take 3-4 eggs and scramble them in a bowl. Put aside.
Now that all the ingredients are ready heat the olive oil over high heat in a wok or a large skillet.
add in the onions and stir constantly until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Then add in the garlic and cook another minute. Make sure to stir often because the heat is on high.
Then add in the cauliflower and stir well. Let this cook for about 2 minutes until the cauliflower is warmed through then add in the frozen peas and carrots. Stir for another 2 minutes until the frozen veggies are warmed through. Then create a well in the center of the wok/skillet and add in the eggs that were scrambled earlier. Let them sit on the bottom for a few seconds then stir them into the cauliflower mixture. Let this all cook together for about 2 more minutes making sure to stir well. Then pour in the soy sauce and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and then it's ready to be served!
***I served this dish with the General Tso meatball recipe from the blog ibreatheimhungry.com.
The only thing I changed was I used ground beef and I did not use chiles instead I subbed crushed red pepper flakes and used them sparingly.
Enjoy!
