Curry fried rice is a favorite take out item in our house because everyone from the parents to the toddler love it but it is full of carbs! I decided to make a healthier version but I also wanted it to be quick. I use a pre-packaged frozen cauliflower fried rice. I prefer the one from Costco but any brand will do fine because we add tons of flavors in the cooking process.

- 1 bag of cauliflower fried rice

Instructions
- Heat a heavy bottom pan on medium heat.

- Saute until onions are translucent and the garlic and ginger are lightly browned.
- Add frozen cauliflower fried rice and raise the heat to high heat.
- Toss the cauliflower fried rice while cooking it for about 10 minutes. You want the edges to turn a bit brown and crispy and cooked through.
- At this point turn the heat down to medium-low.

- Toss everything well and move it to the edges of the pan.
- Add sesame oil to the center and add beaten eggs.
