Cauliflower Fried with Eggs and Tomatoes

One of these “whatever you have in the fridge” recipes here: in this case it calls for cauliflower, tomatoes, eggs and some greens.

I love cauliflower, fried cauliflower the most, and combination of cauliflower with eggs is one of my favorites.

Cooking cauliflower on skillet will take some time, use a lid to speed things up. I would advise against boiling or steaming cauliflower for this recipe as it will become too watery and will lose the crunch.

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 cauliflower florets
  • 4-5 eggs
  • 1 tomato
  • 1 tablespoon of cream
  • Fresh greens (dill or/and parsley)
  • Salt to taste
  • Ground black pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for frying
