Instructions

    1.
    Finely dice the shallot. Dice the zucchini, broccoli, and green beans into one-inch pieces and set aside.
    2.
    Add the cauliflower rice to a large pan with 1 tablespoon of water over a low/medium heat and fry gently for 2-3 minutes. Remove and reserve to one side.
    3.
    Heat one tablespoon of coconut oil in the pan and add the diced green beans, broccoli, shallot, and zucchini. Fry gently for 3-4 minutes until tender.
    4.
    While the vegetables are cooking, beat the eggs together and season with salt and pepper.
    5.
    Add the cauliflower rice back to the pan with the vegetables. Season generously and stir well to combine.
    6.
    Make a well in the center of the vegetables and add the remaining coconut oil to heat up. Pour the beaten egg into the well and leave to settle for a minute to start cooking.

    As the egg starts to cook, break it apart with a wooden spatula, mixing it into the fried vegetables to combine until completely cooked through.
    8.
    Serve as it is or drizzle with soy sauce.
