Method

01
Over a medium heat, soften the onion in ½ tbsp of the extra virgin olive oil.
02
Once soft, add the garlic, ginger, chilli, cauliflower rice and kale. Cover with a lid and cook for a couple of minutes to lightly steam the vegetables.
03
Remove the lid, add the tamari, and stir until the cauliflower begins to brown slightly and any excess moisture evaporates.
04
Pour in the egg mixture and cook for another couple of minutes, stirring gently so it scrambles and coats the "rice".
05
Meanwhile, heat the remaining ½ tbsp of oil in a small pan and fry the second egg to your liking.
06
Stir through the chopped coriander.
07
Serve on a warm plate with a fried egg on top. I like to sprinkle over sesame seeds for extra crunch, but that's optional.
08
For a better protein/fibre balance… add bacon for extra protein and sprinkle seeds on for more fibre.
