Instructions

• 1 Prepare the cauliflower. Cut the head into florets (I used half of a large head
  of cauliflower for 4 people) and then dice them into very small cubes. You could
  also use a food processor to do this. I use this awesome mini food processor
  [https://www.cookedandloved.com/best-kitchen-gadget-for-making-cauliflower-rice/]
  to make cauliflower rice and it doesn't even need power. Set aside. Prepare the
  rest of the veggies.
• 2 Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large wok or a frying pan. Add the chopped
  onions, carrots and celery, season with some salt and pepper and cook for 3-4
  minutes, stirring frequently.
• 3 Add the garlic, ginger and chill and stir through for 30 seconds. Then, add the
  cauliflower and another tablespoon of oil. Keeping the heat high, continue to
  stir fry the ‘rice’ for 3-4 minutes until cauliflower has softened slightly.
  Finally, add the sauce, lemon juice and sesame oil and stir through for 30
  seconds to combine.
• 4 While the cauliflower rice is cooking, whisk together the eggs with a dash of
  coconut aminos or Tamari sauce and a pinch of salt. Heat up a small pan with a
  little oil or fat and add the egg mixture. Spread it around the pan and cook for
  a couple of minutes until set as an omelette. Transfer to a chopping board and
  dice up.
• 5 Stir the cooked egg into the cauliflower rice, leaving some for the top. Finish
  the ‘fried cauliflower rice’ with some chopped spring onions (scallions) and
  serve. I also like some fresh coriander.
