Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup, finely chopped Onion
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 0.5 cup, frozen Green peas
- 0.5 cup, finely diced Carrots
- 0.5 cup, diced Ham
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons, sliced Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the cauliflower: cut the head into florets and grate them using a box grater or pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice granules.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet, and sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the frozen green peas, diced carrots, and diced ham. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
Push the cooked vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the remaining olive oil into the cleared space.
Crack the eggs into the skillet and scramble gently, cooking until just set.
Mix the eggs with the vegetable and ham mixture in the skillet.
Add the cauliflower rice to the skillet and stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Pour the soy sauce over the mixture, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring everything is well-coated and heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
Serve hot as a delicious side or a light main course.
