Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing well.

Step 7

Add the cauliflower rice to the pan, stirring to combine with the spices. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is tender.

Mix in the green peas and cook for another 3-4 minutes until they are heated through.
