Cauliflower "Fried Rice"
From: bestrecipebox.com/
Have you ever wondered how to make cauliflower fried rice? Well here it is and it’s super easy. You’ll wonder why you’ve never made cauliflower fried rice before because it really is one of those easy 30 minute recipes. If you love asian fried rice but don’t want all the calories, then try substituting the rice with cauliflower! No joke friends, this truly is a game changer in satisfying your fried rice cravings and keeping it low fat and healthier.
Using minced cauliflower instead of rice, this "fried rice" is a great way to get your veggies. We prefer the texture of hand minced cauliflower, but you can always mince it in a food processor or buy it pre-minced. If using a food processor, be careful not to process it too much or else the cauliflower will become mushy once cooked.
TOTAL TIME: 30 MINUTES
Yield: 3-4 Servings
Ingredients:
1 medium head cauliflower
1 large egg
2 Tablespoons (30ml) cooking oil, divided
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup (120ml) diced frozen carrots
1/2 cup (120ml) frozen peas
2 Tablespoons (30ml) soy sauce OR liquid aminos *for gluten-free use tamari
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
fresh cracked black pepper to taste
2 green onions, diced
optional: kosher salt
more optional vegetables: celery, broccoli, corn, spinach
Directions:
Mince cauliflower into very small crumbled pieces, resembling the size of rice or larger because the cauliflower will shrink as it cooks.
You can use a food processor to get this texture, but be careful to not process the cauliflower too much or it will become mushy.
We prefer to hand mince everything to get the small texture, so it still remains firm when cooked.
In small bowl, whisk the egg and then set aside.
Heat large skillet on medium high heat.
Add olive oil, then add onion and garlic.
Cook until soft and translucent.
Add cauliflower and sauté until tender, but not mushy soft.
Add the peas and carrots and stir until combined.
Add the beaten egg, soy sauce, sesame oil and black pepper.
Stir until the egg coats all of the cauliflower and becomes cooked.
If needed, add additional kosher salt to taste.
Add green onions and stir until everything is combined.
Serve warm.
