Keto Cauliflower Fried Rice
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chopped mixed vegetables (e.g.,
carrots, peas, bell peppers)
2 eggs, beaten
2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
1 tsp sesame oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: chopped green onions and
sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions:
Start by preparing the cauliflower
rice. Wash the cauliflower and remove the leaves and stem. Cut the cauliflower
into florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice.
Alternatively, you can grate the cauliflower with a box grater.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a
large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until
translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an
additional 30 seconds.
Add the chopped mixed vegetables and
cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender.
Push the vegetables to one side of
the skillet and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the other side.
Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble them until fully cooked.
Add the cauliflower rice to the
skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables and eggs.
Pour in the soy sauce or tamari and
sesame oil, and stir to coat the cauliflower rice evenly. Cook for an additional
3-5 minutes, or until the cauliflower rice is tender.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
If desired, garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
And that's it! Your keto cauliflower
fried rice is ready to enjoy. This dish is not only delicious but also a great
way to get more vegetables into your diet. Feel free to customize this recipe
with your favorite veggies or protein sources, such as shrimp or chicken.
