Skinny Veggie Egg Fried "Rice"

Bloglovin' is full to the brim with cauliflower rice recipes, I've already given my 2 cents, but here's another 2, this time inspired by Rose's recipe, just in case fish didn't tickle your taste buds.

I hate cauliflower. The smell of it cooked makes me think of smelly, old socks, and although I eat odd things, they're not really what I'd like to scarf down  snaffle.

But this isn't just a game changer, it's a game changer and a half. 

This cauliflower was £1, and once you've blitzed it all up, there's tonnes of the stuff, so if there's just you, pop some of it in a tupperware box and then you can make another meal in a few days.

Perfect for a student budget.

For a feast for two:

1 cauliflower

1 tsp sesame oil

2 spring onions

Frozen sweetcorn

4 button mushrooms, sliced

Tofu (optional)

Soy sauce

Hot sauce

1 egg

First grate your cauli, you can pop it in the blender, like I do, or get a large cheese grater and get grating.

This was my first time cooking with tofu, I did really like it, but I guess it's an acquired taste so it's not everyone's first choice.

Cut it open...

Then wrap with lots and lots of kitchen roll and squeeze firmly, but gently to remove as much of the water as possible.
Cut how much you want or need, gently though because it slices like butter, and not out of the fridge butter, butter that's room temp, so good luck.

  
Heat a frying pan, add a dash of soy sauce and throw (gently) your tofu in and cook until lightly browned.

Whilst the tofu is browning, chop up two spring onions and add the frozen sweetcorn with the sesame oil into the cauliflower rice.

Put this pan on the heat and add the mushrooms.

Add some soy sauce...

Keep stirring around about now because you don't want anything to get stuck to the bottom because crunchy rice ain't nice.

Create a little well in the rice, and crack in your egg.

Sort of beat it with the wooden spoon then scramble it as it cooks on the bottom of the pan.

This is one of my new found loves, Sriracha, it's a hot sauce that I found via Cassey Ho, it's so delicious, thicker than Tabasco and packs a huge punch of flavour, I got mine from Tesco.

I only added a teensy bit of this because I didn't want to go crazy!
Stir in your tofu and then serve!

Look at how full these two bowls were! This wasn't even all of it!

And if there's any leftovers (which there were), you can just polish them off (which I did)!

This recipe probably could have fed three, but I'm a bit of a feeder (I'm not actually, for those who don't know me) and it's better to have some left over, than not enough!

Cauliflower is the best source of vitamin C, after citrus foods, has tonnes of fiber, potassium (which gets your kidneys to get rid of waste products), and folic acid, so, if you're wanting to get pregnant, get your cauliflower oooon.
