Cauliflower Egg Fried Rice

Wendy Faulkner
Cauliflower egg fried rice is a really delicious way of enjoying cauliflower. It's family friendly, and really quick to make as you don't need to precook the 'rice'. And of course it's super nutritious, either as a healthy side dish, or as a quick meal by itself.

Ingredients
  

  • 400 g cauliflower roughly chopped
  • 1 onion peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic peeled and very fined chopped or crushed
  • 2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 2 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 40 g peanuts or cashews optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the cauliflower in a food processor and blitz until it looks like rice
  • Place a pan on a medium and add half the olive oil. Add the chopped onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until turning golden. Add the cauliflower, ginger and garlic and continue to fry for another 3-4 minutes. Stir frequently to ensure the mix doesn't stick to the pan
  • Break the eggs into a small bowl and mix with a fork until the yolk and white are well mixed.
  • Push the vegetables to the side of the pan and add the remaining oil. Tip the eggs into the pan and stir for a minute or so until they are scrambled. Mix the eggs through the cauliflower and season with soy sauce. Top with the nuts if using.
