This vegan dinner idea is one balanced flavor bomb of a meal, thanks to some of our favorite umami-rich condiments. Crisp-roasted cauliflower is coated in a velvety blend of hoisin, katsu sauce, and sweet Thai chili sauce—a combination that’s hard to beat! Fragrant fried rice, bejeweled with tender-crisp carrots and sweet peas, is the perfect bed for nestling the savory-sweet glazed cauliflower. Finish with a sprinkle of scallion greens and nutty sesame seeds for crunchy contrast.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Roast Cauliflower
1

• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Trim cauliflower into bite-size pieces. • Toss cauliflower on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes.

Prep
2

• Meanwhile, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Trim, peel, and quarter carrots lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise into quarter-moons.

Cook Rice
3

• Heat a drizzle of oil and half the sesame oil in a small pot (use all the sesame oil and a medium pot for 4 servings) over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and cook, stirring occasionally, 1-2 minutes. • Add rice, stock concentrate, 1 cup water (2 cups for 4), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. Keep covered off heat until Step 6.

Rinse shrimp under cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over high heat. Add shrimp or turkey and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until cooked through, 3-4 minutes for shrimp or 4-6 minutes for turkey. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan.

Cook Carrots & Peas
4

• While rice cooks, heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add carrots and a pinch of salt; stir to combine. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and almost cooked through, 5-7 minutes. • Uncover and add peas and ¼ cup water (½ cup for 4 servings). Cook until carrots and peas are tender and water has completely evaporated, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.

Use pan used for shrimp or turkey here.

Glaze Cauliflower
5

• When cauliflower is almost done roasting, combine katsu sauce, hoisin, chili sauce, 1 tsp water (2 tsp for 4 servings), and a pinch of chili flakes in a medium microwave-safe bowl. • Microwave until warmed, 20-30 seconds. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. • Transfer roasted cauliflower to bowl with sauce; toss to combine.

Finish & Serve
6

• To pot with rice, add carrots and peas and half the scallion greens. Stir to combine; taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. • Divide rice between shallow bowls and top with glazed cauliflower. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and remaining scallion greens. Serve.

Add shrimp or turkey to rice along with carrots and peas.

Ground Turkey is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.

  • Ease of prep: A few felt it was overcomplicated for what could have been a simple stir fry.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding ground turkey or chicken sausage for extra protein and flavor. Adjust spice levels to taste 🌶️.

I liked this dish because I like roasted cauliflower. However, I wouldn't have liked it as well had I not added the ground turkey. I think that added a lot to it (would have preferred the chicken sausage).

This was good. We added ground turkey. I think I should have added more hot pepper.

Not sure. The katsu etc, was too strong, but the bowl was bland. This is the first meal we have had that really wasn't that great.

This was okay? A bit over-complicated for what should've been a simple stir fry
