INGREDIENTS

• 1 medium-sized head of cauliflower

• 2 tablespoons sesame oil, divided

• 1 tablespoon minced ginger

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cut the cauliflower into florets, discarding the tough inner core. Working in batches if needed, pulse the cauliflower in a food processor until it breaks down into rice-sized pieces. You should have 5 to 6 cups of cauliflower “rice.”

2. Set aside.

3. In a large wok, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and lightly stir fry for 30 seconds – 1 minute until just golden brown and fragrant. Add in the crumbled tofu and stir-fry for 5 minutes, stirring often, until tofu is golden in color and cooked through.

4. Remove tofu from wok and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of sesame oil.

5. Add in the carrots and sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir the peas, and cauliflower “rice” into the wok, mixing the ingredients thoroughly.

6. Cook, stirring often, until the cauliflower is tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the cooked tofu, green onions, cashews and braggs soy sauce or coconut aminos.

7. Garnish with sesame seeds, if desired.
