To make the yum yum sauce
- Whisk all ingredients together. If sauce is too thick, use about 2 tablespoons of water to thin it to a pourable consistency. The sauce can also be made in advance and stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
To make the cauliflower rice
- If making cauliflower rice from scratch, place florets in a food processor in batches and pulse until mixture is evenly minced. Alternatively, grate florets on the coarse side of a box grater, mincing any remaining large bits with a knife.
- Peel and finely dice onions and carrots. Mince garlic and set aside.
- Heat a wok or skillet to medium-high with 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Sauté onion, carrots, and peas until the onions are translucent and the carrots and peas are tender and cooked through.
- Add garlic and cauliflower rice to the pan and sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the cauliflower is heated through. Add a pinch each of salt and pepper, then taste for seasoning and add coconut aminos or soy sauce to taste. Stir in green onion and bacon, if using.
- Crack eggs into a small bowl.
- Using a spatula, move mixture to the side of the pan and raise the heat.
- While the pan is hot, add a spray or drizzle of oil to the empty side and add eggs. Scramble until cooked through and mix in with the veggies. Separate fried rice among 6 bowls. Fry some additional eggs in a separate pan to serve atop fried rice, if desired.
- Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and drizzle with yum yum sauce before serving. Craving some heat? Chili sauce makes a great addition too. Have fun with it and enjoy!
