Steps:
- Remove all leaves and cut the cauliflower into small florets.
- Place the florets in a food processor and blend until they are a rice-like texture. Be careful not to over process or it may turn mushy. Set aside, and drain excess moisture with a towel, if desired.
- In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the pork until no pink is showing, then add the garlic, onions, salt, pepper, soy sauce, and honey, stirring until the sauce has started to brown.
- Stir until most of the liquid has reduced, then add the cauliflower rice. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the pork is incorporated evenly into the cauliflower.
- Spread the rice towards the edge of the pan, creating a well in the center.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the well, stirring only the eggs until they are cooked.
- Fold the eggs into the rice, then mix in the green onions
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Pulse cauliflower in a food processor until it resembles rice.
- Heat sesame oil a large wok or skillet over medium heat. Season pork chops with five-spice powder; cook until pork is slightly pink in the center, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

- Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, red pepper flakes, and ginger together in a bowl.
- Return wok to medium heat; cook and stir mushrooms, onion, carrot, and poblano chile until tender, about 4 minutes. Cut pork chops into cubes.

5-SPICE PORK AND FRIED RICE
The inspiration for this dish came from when I was attending college back at home in Ireland and I would always order a 5-spice chicken with noodles at a lunch spot in between classes. Ever since then I've just loved the sweet, spicy and earthy flavor of 5-spice; it also pairs beautifully with pork.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar and 5-spice powder in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside and let cool.
- Put the tenderloin on the prepared baking sheet. Brush all over with the sauce and roast in the oven until the internal temperature on an instant-read thermometer reaches 140 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Slice 1/2-inch thick.
- While the pork is roasting, heat 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil in a large nonstick skillet. Cook the eggs, stirring with a silicone spatula, until softly scrambled, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil to the same skillet. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring often, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the oyster sauce and cook, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add the corn and peas and stir together. Add the soy sauce and the cooked eggs and cook, stirring often, until the corn and peas are warmed through, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the chopped cilantro and set aside.
- Spoon some fried rice in the center of each plate, top with 2 to 3 slices of pork, some of the nuts and cilantro leaves and serve.
Tips:
- Prep Your Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will save you time and hassle during the cooking process.
- Use Fresh Cauliflower Rice: Fresh cauliflower rice is best for this recipe, as it has a better texture and flavor than frozen or pre-packaged cauliflower rice.
- Don't Overcook the Cauliflower Rice: Cauliflower rice cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy and lose its texture.
- Use a Wok or Large Skillet: A wok or large skillet is ideal for cooking this dish, as it allows you to stir-fry the ingredients evenly.
- Add the Ingredients in Stages: Don't add all the ingredients to the wok or skillet at once. Add them in stages, starting with the aromatics (garlic, ginger, and scallions) and then adding the other ingredients.
- Season to Taste: Taste the fried rice as you cook it and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Conclusion:
This spicy cauliflower fried rice with pork is a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional fried rice. It's packed with flavor and nutrients, and it's easy to make. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try!
