INGREDIENTS:
- Cauliflower – 1 medium, separate the florets and take wholesome heads
- Onion – half of a medium onion, diced into small pcs.

- Veggies – ½ cup of green peas, carrot, beans, mushroom, corn
- Chicken – half cup, diced into small pcs. (optional)
- Eggs – 1 (optional)
- Ginger – 1-inch, diced into small pcs.
- Oil – 2 tbsp
- Salt and pepper – adjust according to taste
- Coriander leaves – for garnishing
METHOD:
- Separate the cauliflower florets and grate the wholesome heads using the larger hole of the grater box. Don’t use the smaller hole – it’ll simply make the whole thing mushy. Use 3 cups of this grated cauliflower.
- Heat oil in a large skillet. When it is hot, add the diced onion, green chillies and ginger. Saute till the onion begins to turn brown.
- Put the veggies and mix them with onion. Sprinkle salt and pepper. Cover and cook for 5 minutes over low heat. You can also put tofu and edamame to incorporate more protein in your diet.
- Put cauliflower. Mix everything together for a minute or till the raw smell of cauliflower goes away. Adjust salt and pepper. Cover and cook on low heat for about 5 minutes if you like your cauliflower crunchy or for 10 minutes if you like it well done.
- Make a small hole by pushing the florets towards the edges. Add a drop of oil. Break an egg, and mix it with cauliflower. Keep stirring for a minute.
- If you’re using chicken, fry the chicken pieces in a separate skillet for 10 minute or till it is cooked. Add salt and pepper. Before eating, throw them in the cauliflower mix.
- Garnish your dish with coriander leaves.
- This is a standalone dish, which you can serve with hot chili or Sriracha sauce for a spicer version.
