About the Recipe

This Chinese-style cauliflower fried rice is a healthy, low-carb dish that is ready in minutes.

Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs, beaten

  • 4 TBS oil, divided

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 TBS fresh ginger, minced

  • 1 head cauliflower

  • 4-5 tablespoons soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon sugar

  • 1/2 cup onion, diced

  • 1/2 cup carrot grated

  • 1/2 cup cabbage, shredded

  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar (can substitute with any vinegar)

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

Preparation

  1. Grate the cauliflower in a food processor fitted with the grating disc or grate on the large holes of a box or hand-held grater.

  2. Heat 1 TBS of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and a pinch of salt and scramble until the eggs are cooked. Transfer to a small plate and wipe the pan clean.

  3. Add 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil to the pan and set over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, onion, carrot, and cabbage and cook, stirring often, until softened but not browned, 3 to 4 minutes.

  4. Add the grated cauliflower, 4 tablespoons of the soy sauce, sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often until the cauliflower "rice" is tender-crisp. Stir in the rice vinegar, sesame oil, and eggs. Taste and adjust seasoning (adding the remaining tablespoon of soy sauce if necessary). Serve hot.
