Keto Thai Fried Rice
Let’s put a little twist on Chinese fried rice! Goldened cauliflower rice is cooked with an assortment of greens and chilis. Just a few seasonings are needed, and the recipe allows you to add on extras at the end without blowing out your carbohydrates. Take caution, as this is a spicy dish!Jessica L.
How to Make It
Step 1
Prep the Garlic clove, chilis, basil, and bok choy. Mince the garlic; slice the chilis into thin rounds (if you can’t access Thai chilis, serranos will work); chop the basil, and chop the leaves of the bok choy, discarding the hard stalks.
Step 2
Whisk together the egg in a bowl, and set this aside for later.
Step 3
Heat the cauliflower rice in a large skillet over high heat (if you’re using frozen cauliflower, use 2 cups of rice, as it reduces in size during cooking – this does not change the nutrition). Cook the rice with the soy sauce and fish sauce until the rice turns golden with a slight char.
Step 4
Stir in the olive oil, salt, ginger, onion powder, garlic, chilis, basil, and bok choy. Reduce the heat to a medium-low and cook the ingredients for 2 minutes, stirring to avoid burning.
Step 5
Finally, pour in the raw egg, stirring continually until the egg scrambles and cooks through.
Step 6
Serve hot with your choice of garnishes at your discretion: cilantro, sesame seeds, lime juice, chili sauce, extra basil, or green onion.
