Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower (or 4 cups riced cauliflower)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (or sesame oil for added flavor)

2 large eggs, lightly beaten

1 cup carrots, diced

1 cup bell peppers, diced (any color)

1/2 cup frozen peas

3 green onions, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)

1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnishing)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh cilantro, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Rice the Cauliflower: Begin by removing the leaves and stem from the cauliflower. Cut it into smaller florets and pulse in a food processor until it resembles rice. Alternatively, you can grate the cauliflower for a similar texture.

    Cook the Eggs: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the beaten eggs, swirling the pan to create a thin layer. Cook until just set, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan, chop into small pieces, and set aside.

      Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the diced carrots and bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, being careful not to burn it.

        Add Cauliflower Rice: Add the riced cauliflower and frozen peas to the skillet. Stir to combine with the vegetables. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender but still al dente.

          Season: Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce (if using) over the cauliflower mixture. Toss everything together so that the cauliflower is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Combine Everything: Gently fold in the cooked eggs and sliced green onions. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro if desired. Serve hot as a side dish or main course.
