Ingredients
- 1 large head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 2 medium, diced Carrots
- 0.5 cup Frozen peas
- 1 small, finely chopped Onion
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Tamari or coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 stalks, sliced Green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Remove the leaves and core of the cauliflower, then chop it into chunks. Pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the diced carrots, peas, and chopped onion to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
Step 4
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Step 5
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet, and crack the eggs into the empty space. Scramble them until fully cooked, then mix them with the vegetables.
Step 6
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of coconut oil to the skillet, then add the riced cauliflower. Stir everything together and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Step 7
Stir in the tamari or coconut aminos, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the cauliflower and vegetables evenly.
Step 8
Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the fried rice with sliced green onions.
Step 9
Serve hot and enjoy your Paleo Cauliflower Fried Rice.
