Riced cauliflower stands in for grain here, soaking up a savory soy-garlic sauce while broccoli florets stay crisp-tender. It comes together in one skillet in under 25 minutes, making it a fast weeknight side or a light main when topped with a fried egg or extra tofu.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
- 3 cups broccoli florets, cut small
- 3 cups cauliflower rice
- 1/2 cup carrots, shredded
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- salt, to taste
- black pepper, to taste
Method
-
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a 9-inch skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli florets and cook, stirring frequently, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes.
-
Push the broccoli to one side of the skillet and pour in the beaten eggs. Scramble until just set, about 1 minute, then break into small pieces.
-
Push the broccoli and eggs to the side, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, then add the garlic and ginger and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
-
Add the cauliflower rice and shredded carrots to the skillet. Stir everything together and cook, stirring often, until the cauliflower rice is tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes.
-
Pour in the soy sauce and sesame oil, then add the red pepper flakes. Stir to coat everything evenly and cook 1 minute more.
-
Remove from heat and stir in the green onions. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
-
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve hot.
