Ingredients
2 Eggland’s Best Eggs, Large
1 medium head of cauliflower, grated or chopped into small florets
1 tablespoon olive oil (or your preferred cooking oil)
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup diced sweet pepper (optional, adds extra depth)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (or regular paprika)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Fresh herbs for garnish (parsley or chives)
Kitchen tip: Make meal prep easier by preparing the cauliflower hash ahead! Cook the cauliflower and vegetables, then store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. When ready to eat, simply reheat and top with a fresh fried egg.
Preparation
Prepare the Cauliflower:
- Using a box grater or food processor, transform the cauliflower into rice-sized pieces. For florets, chop them into tiny, uniform pieces.
Cook the Vegetables:
- Warm olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sweet pepper (if using). Cook for 3-4 minutes until soft.
- Introduce the riced cauliflower to the softened vegetables. Mix well and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cauliflower becomes tender and golden.
- Season the hash with garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly to distribute seasonings. Cook 1-2 minutes more, then remove from heat.
Fry the eggs:
- Heat a separate non-stick pan with a touch of oil or butter over medium heat. Carefully crack the Farm Fresh eggs into the pan, keeping yolks intact. Cook 3-4 minutes for set whites and runny yolks. (Adjust cooking time for firmer yolks.)
Assemble and Serve:
- Portion the cauliflower hash onto two plates.
- Place a perfectly fried egg atop each serving.
- Finish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs (if desired) for color and flavor.
- Serve hot and enjoy immediately!
