Cauliflower Fried Rice Blackstone Recipes

CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE

Steps:

• In batches, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until rice-size crumbs form. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Put a large skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil and sesame oil. Add two-thirds of the green onions, the garlic, ginger and chili paste. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Raise the heat to medium high and add the carrots and spinach; continue to cook, stirring, until the spinach has wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Continuing to stir constantly, add the cauliflower rice. Cook until the cauliflower is tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the soy sauce and stir, scraping the bottom of the skillet, until the liquid has evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a second skillet over medium heat. Crack in the eggs; as they cook, spoon hot butter over the whites of the eggs so that the whites set without flipping. Towards the end of cooking, carefully spoon hot butter over the yolks and cook until the eggs reach the desired doneness.
• Remove the pan with the cauliflower from the heat, drizzle with sriracha, and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and reserved green onions. Divide between 4 plates and top each serving with an egg.

CHICKEN CAULIFLOWER "FRIED RICE"

Steps:

• Cut the cauliflower into chunks. Working in batches, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until coarse in texture, like rice. This recipe uses about 4 cups of cauliflower rice. If you have any leftover, save it for another use.
• Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 teaspoon of the canola oil. Add the eggs and quickly scramble. Transfer the eggs to a plate and set aside. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons canola oil. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Add the peas and carrots, scallions and cauliflower. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
• As the vegetables are cooking, whisk the soy sauce and sesame oil together in a small bowl. Stir the sauce and chicken into the cauliflower mixture. Cook an additional minute or 2. Stir the cooked eggs back into the mixture. Serve with hot sauce and additional soy sauce if desired.

CAULIFLOWER FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Pulse cauliflower florets in 2 batches a food processor until finely chopped, but not pureed, about 6 quick pulses (4 cups chopped cauliflower).
• Heat a large cast iron pan or wok over high until very hot, about 2 minutes (a sprinkle of water should evaporate immediately). Add 2 teaspoons oil and swirl to coat. Beat together eggs, 2 teaspoons water, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Add egg mixture to pan and cook, pushing eggs toward center of pan to form large, soft curds, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil, carrots, and onion to pan; cook 2 to 3 minutes until softened and beginning to brown. Add garlic, ginger, and sambal oelek; cook stirring until fragrant, 1 minute. Add cauliflower; cook stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pan, until just barely tender, 2 minutes. Remove from pan to a large bowl; add back eggs. Stir in peas and soy sauce. Season with salt and pepper.

SPICY CAULIFLOWER FRIED 'RICE' WITH PORK

Steps:

• Pulse cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice.
• Heat sesame oil a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Season pork chops with five-spice powder; cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Transfer pork chops to a cutting board to rest.
• Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, and ginger together in a bowl.
• Return wok to medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms, onion, carrot, and poblano chile until tender, about 4 minutes. Cut pork chops into cubes.
• Push mushroom mixture to one side of wok. Add eggs; cook and stir until scrambled, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir mushroom mixture and eggs together in wok. Stir in cauliflower and soy sauce mixture; add pork cubes. Cook until cauliflower is tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Garnish with green onions.
