- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 small red bell pepper
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by preparing the cauliflower rice. Cut the cauliflower into florets and pulse in a food processor until they reach the size of rice grains. Set aside.
Step 2
Peel and devein the prawns, if necessary, and pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 3
Chop green onions and separate the white parts from the green ends. Mince the garlic cloves and dice the red bell pepper.
Step 4
In a large pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium-high heat. Add prawns and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside.
Step 5
Add the remaining tablespoon of coconut oil to the pan. Add the minced garlic, the whites of the green onions, and the diced red bell pepper. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
Step 6
Push the vegetables to one side of the pan, crack the eggs in and scramble them. Once cooked, mix them with the sautéed vegetables.
Step 7
Add the riced cauliflower and frozen peas to the pan. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Step 8
Drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil over the mixture. Add the cooked prawns back into the pan. Stir everything well and cook for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring the cauliflower is tender but not mushy.
Step 9
Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and garnish with the green ends of the chopped green onions.
