Cauliflower Fried Rice is an easy to make a tasty, low carb meal packed with vitamins and flavor!
Cauliflower Fried Rice is a sound option in contrast to the standard seared rice formula that you’re accustomed to getting from a Chinese takeout restaurant.This formula is cooked precisely equivalent to a customary singed rice formula, yet instead of cooked short grain white rice I utilized crude cauliflower.
Cauliflower plans are extremely popular, and making utilizing cauliflower instead of the white rice is made significantly simpler with locally acquired cauliflower “rice”.I’ve discovered that on the off chance that I can supplant my most loved carbs (for example bread, pasta and rice) with some sort of vegetable that is to some degree comparable in surface, yet still appreciate similar plans I know and love, I can settle on better decisions.
My cauliflower seared rice formula is actually similar to my standard singed rice formula with one exemption. I trade minced crude cauliflower, or cauliflower “rice”, for the cool, cooked short grain white rice.

Ingredients
- 2 eggs (whisked)
- 4 tablespoons butter (divided)
- 2 medium carrots (peeled and diced)
- 1 small white or yellow onion (diced)
- ½ cup frozen peas
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 cups cauliflower rice (raw cauliflower diced)
- ¼ cup green onions (thinly sliced)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or more to taste)
- ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Using a large saute pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once hot, add the whisked egg, stirring only occasionally until soft scrambled. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Melt two additional tablespoons of butter and increase heat to medium-high. Add diced carrots, onion, and peas. Stir to coat in butter and allow to cook until slightly brown, stirring occasionally, about 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and allow to cook for an additional minute.
- Push the sauteed veggies to the sides of the pan, add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the middle of the pan, and add the cauliflower rice. Give it a quick stir to distribute the melted butter, but allow it to brown slightly by not stirring for a couple of minutes. Once the bottom of the cauliflower starts to brown, stir all the veggies together and allow them to cook for another couple of minutes.
- Stir in the green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and cooked egg. Remove from heat. Serve with additional sesame seeds, if desired.
Notes
Save yourself some time and buy a bag of cauliflower rice from the store instead of chopping it yourself.
