Method
 

Cauliflower Fried Rice
  1. Chop cauliflower head into big chunks and pulse in a blender. Another alternative if you don't have a blender is grating the cauliflower on a box grater. Measure out 4 cups grated cauliflower.
  2. Heat the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add cauliflower and frozen mixed vegetables then stir fry until cauliflower is just beginning to turn tender, 3-4 minutes. Add garlic, season with salt and pepper, and then continue to stir fry until garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds or so.
  3. Push mixture to the side of the pan to give space for the egg, crack both eggs and scramble. Let stir fry another minute and then add soy sauce. Serve hot!
Beef and Broccoli
  1. Toss beef in a large bowl with corn starch.
  2. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes. Add beef and cook until it browns, a few minutes. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  3. Add broccoli, mushrooms and garlic to the pan, and stir. Add beef broth. Let simmer until the broccoli is tender, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. While vegetables are cooking, combine all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl and mix well
  5. Add the reserved beef and sauce to the pan, and stir. Let simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce thickens a bit.
  6. Serve beef and broccoli over the cauliflower fried rice.
    Enjoy!
