Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Microwave the frozen cauliflower rice for 2–3 minutes until slightly thawed. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the frozen peas and carrots with diced yellow onion. Microwave for another 1–2 minutes to soften the vegetables lightly.
  3. In a non-stick pan, heat a teaspoon of oil over medium heat. Crack the large egg into the hot pan and scramble gently for about 1–2 minutes until fully cooked. Set aside.
  4. Add another teaspoon of oil to the same pan and increase heat to medium-high. Toss in minced garlic and sauté with diced onion for 2–3 minutes until translucent.
  5. Add prepared cauliflower rice to the pan and stir-fry for about 4–5 minutes until slightly crispy and golden. Pour in soy sauce and oyster sauce, mixing well.
  6. Return cooked vegetables and scrambled egg to the pan, stirring together for another minute until heated through.
  7. Remove from heat and serve warm, optionally drizzling sesame oil on top for extra flavor.
