Ingredients
- 1 lb Shrimp
- 4 cups Cauliflower rice
- 3 Eggs
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Avocado oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Ginger
- 4 Green onions
Steps
- Pat the shrimp very dry and season with salt and pepper — moisture is the enemy of a good sear.
- Sear the shrimp in a ripping-hot wok with 1 tablespoon of avocado oil, 90 seconds per side, until pink and curled; set aside.
- Scramble the beaten eggs in the wok until just set, then break into ribbons and set aside with the shrimp.
- Add the remaining oil and the cauliflower rice; spread it flat and leave it undisturbed 2 minutes so it toasts instead of steaming.
- Stir in the garlic and ginger; toss 2 minutes until intensely fragrant.
- Return the shrimp and eggs to the wok; drizzle the soy sauce and sesame oil around the hot edges so they sizzle before hitting the food.
- Toss 1 minute, shower with sliced green onions, and taste — it should be savory with toasty edges.
