  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 carrots (peeled and diced (225 g))

  4. Add the carrots, season with salt and pepper, and continue cooking for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften, stirring occasionally.
  5. Add the red pepper flakes, riced cauliflower, peas, green onion, peas, corn and soy sauce.
  6. Cook for about 6-8 minutes until the cauliflower is tender, stirring often.
  7. Serve immediately topped with more green onions, toasted sesame seeds or cashews, and/or a drizzle of sesame oil or sriracha.
