This recipe incorporates the crunch of fresh peas, the sweetness of carrots, and the savoriness of onions, all seasoned with fragrant sesame oil, garlic, and soy sauce.

- Use a food processor to rice the cauliflower quickly and evenly. If you don’t have one, you can grate it by hand using a box grater.
- Make sure to use fresh vegetables for the best texture and flavor, but frozen peas can work in a pinch.
- Pre-cook the peas and carrots slightly before adding them to the fried rice to ensure they are tender.
- Use a large wok or frying pan to avoid overcrowding and to ensure even cooking.
- Cook the eggs separately and then mix them in at the end to prevent them from overcooking and to distribute them evenly throughout the dish.
- Adjust the soy sauce to taste, and consider adding a splash of rice vinegar or a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
- Garnish with green onions or a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving for an additional layer of taste and texture.
