Here’s a quick and healthy recipe for Cauliflower Fried Rice that you can whip up in just 15 minutes! This dish uses fresh cauliflower instead of rice, making it a lighter option. You’ll need a medium-sized cauliflower head, some sesame oil, a large carrot, garlic, frozen edamame, and eggs or tofu if you’re keeping it vegan. For seasoning, just some low sodium soy sauce or tamari if you’re gluten-free.
First, get your cauliflower ready by shredding it into rice-sized pieces using a grater or a food processor. Then, heat a tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet and toss in the carrots and garlic, cooking them until they’re fragrant, which should take about 5 minutes. Next, add the cauliflower and edamame along with the rest of the sesame oil and stir fry everything. You want the cauliflower to be cooked but still have a bit of a bite.
Now, lower the heat and make a space in the center of your skillet to add the eggs or scrambled tofu. Stir gently but continuously until the eggs or tofu are fully cooked. Finally, mix in the soy sauce and green onions, and serve hot. This dish is not only easy to make but also packed with flavor and good for you!
