Description
A fast and flavorful low carb fried rice recipe using riced cauliflower and fresh aromatics.
Ingredients
1 large head of cauliflower, riced
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed
3 tablespoons soy sauce or liquid aminos
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons avocado oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
3 green onions, sliced
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
Instructions
Step 1: Rice the cauliflower by pulsing florets in a food processor until they reach a grain-like consistency.
Step 2: Heat avocado oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 3: Sauté the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the green onions for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 4: Add the peas and carrots, cooking for 2 minutes, then push them to the side and scramble the eggs in the center of the pan.
