Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium head of cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower and cut it into florets. In a food processor, pulse the florets until they resemble rice grains.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onions and carrots; cook until softened, about 4-5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the beaten eggs. Scramble until fully cooked, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the cauliflower rice and soy sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower is tender.
- Season with salt and pepper, then toss in the sliced green onions just before serving.
Notes
For a finer cauliflower rice, pulse the florets in batches. Consider adding more veggies like bell peppers or peas.
