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!

Tips:
- Prep your ingredients in advance: Cut the cauliflower into florets, mince the garlic and ginger, and chop the pork into bite-sized pieces before you start cooking. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and quickly.
- Use a large skillet or wok: This will ensure that the rice has enough room to spread out and cook evenly.
- Cook the cauliflower rice in batches: If you try to cook all of the cauliflower rice at once, it will steam instead of fry. Cook it in batches until all of the rice is golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Use a high heat: This will help the cauliflower rice to brown and caramelize.
- Add the sauce gradually: Start with a small amount of sauce and add more to taste. This will help you to avoid making the rice too salty or spicy.
- Serve the rice immediately: Cauliflower rice is best served hot and fresh. If you let it sit for too long, it will start to lose its texture and flavor.
Conclusion:
Spicy cauliflower fried rice with pork is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover cauliflower rice. With its bold flavors and crispy texture, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
