Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 1 cup Lobster meat, cooked and chopped
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or avocado oil
- 3 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup Peas (optional for keto)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by preparing the cauliflower rice. Remove the stem and leaves from the cauliflower, chop it into small florets, and pulse them in a food processor until they resemble rice grains. Set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat one tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble them until just set. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Saute the garlic and grated ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the chopped red bell pepper and peas to the skillet, cooking them for about 2 minutes until slightly tender.
Increase the heat to high and add the cauliflower rice, cooking for about 5 minutes while stirring constantly, until the cauliflower turns golden brown in some spots and is tender.
Stir in the cooked lobster meat, scrambled eggs, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything to combine and cook for another 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Finally, add the chopped green onions to the skillet, reserving some for garnish if desired. Give the fried rice a final stir.
Serve the keto lobster fried rice hot, garnished with additional green onions if desired.
