How To Make cauliflower fried rice
-
Step 1Using a food processor with the shredding disk, grate the florets in batches until they resemble the size of rice.
-
Step 2Divide the cauliflower rice into 2 large baking sheets lined with paper towels and spread a thin layer evenly before placing another paper towel on top; pat dry to absorb any moisture and set aside for 15 minutes while prepping the other ingredients.
-
Step 3In a small bowl, add all the sauce ingredients and whisk until blended; set aside.
-
Step 4In another bowl, add eggs and a couple pinches of salt; beat until combined and set aside.
-
Step 5Heat up the oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add onions, carrots and celery; sauté for 2 minutes.
-
Step 6Add red pepper and sauté for 1 minute. Add garlic and ginger; sauté for 30 seconds. Add the peas and toss into the mixture.
-
Step 7Add cauliflower rice and cook for 4 minutes, tossing constantly.
-
Step 8Make a well in the middle, pour a little bit of oil in it and then add the beaten eggs. Let them sit, undisturbed, for 20 seconds then scramble until almost cooked. Toss them with the rest of the ingredients.
-
Step 9Add the sauce and toss until the cauliflower rice is well coated.
-
Step 10Sprinkle on sesame seeds and green onions; serve immediately.
