Drescription

This vegetarian faux fried rice uses riced cauliflower in place of white or brown rice to pack in extra veggies and cut down on carbs. Chile-garlic sauce pumps up the heat, and fresh ginger adds a bright, warm bite. If you don't like the heat of the chile-garlic sauce, leave it out and add a bit more tamari or soy sauce for a rich, fermented tang.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
  • 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
  • 4 cups cauliflower rice (see tip)
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 scallions, sliced, greens and whites separated, divided
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
  • 2 tablespoons chile-garlic sauce (such as sambal oelek)
  • 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • ½ cup unsalted peanuts

Directions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add eggs and cook, tilting the pan and lifting the edges with a spatula to let the uncooked egg flow underneath, until almost set on the bottom, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until set completely, about 30 seconds more. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into bite-size strips.
  2. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add cauliflower rice, bell pepper, scallion whites and ginger. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cauliflower is soft and beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Add chile-garlic sauce, soy sauce (or tamari), peanuts and the eggs. Stir until combined and heated through, about 30 seconds. Garnish each serving with scallion greens.
