Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium head cauliflower or 4 cups cauliflower rice
  • 2 large eggs beaten
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables peas, carrots, bell peppers
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or coconut aminos for gluten free
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ginger grated
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup Optional: chicken, shrimp, or beef cooked

Equipment

  • Large Pan or Wok
  • Cutting board
  • Knife
  • Food Processor (if making fresh cauliflower rice)

Method
 

Prepare the Cauliflower Rice
  1. Wash the cauliflower and cut it into small florets. Place them in a food processor and blend until they look like small rice grains. If you are using store-bought cauliflower rice, you can skip this step.
Cook the Eggs
  1. Heat a pan or wok with one teaspoon of sesame oil. Crack the eggs into the pan and scramble them until fluffy. When done, remove the eggs from the pan and set them aside.
Sauté the Veggies
  1. In the same pan, add a little more oil. Put in the chopped garlic and grated ginger and stir for about 30 seconds. Add your vegetables like peas, carrots, and bell peppers. Stir-fry them for three to four minutes until they are soft but still a little crunchy.
Add the Cauliflower Rice
  1. Now add the cauliflower rice to the pan. Pour in the soy sauce or coconut aminos and mix well. Cook on medium heat for five to seven minutes until the cauliflower rice is soft but not mushy.
Combine and Serve
  1. Add the scrambled eggs back to the pan and mix everything together. Taste and adjust with salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with chopped spring onions or sesame seeds. Serve hot and enjoy your healthy keto cauliflower fried rice.

Notes

  • Do not overcook the cauliflower rice; it can turn soft and mushy. Cook only until tender.
  • Use coconut aminos instead of soy sauce if you want a gluten free option.
  • Fresh cauliflower gives a better texture, but frozen cauliflower rice also works fine.
  • You can add chicken, shrimp, or beef for more protein and flavor.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan for the best taste.
  • Add sesame oil or avocado oil at the end for extra flavor.
  • For meal prep, divide the rice into containers and enjoy quick keto meals all week.
