Begin by removing the core of the cauliflower and ensuring it is thoroughly dried.
Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Next, take half of the florets and place them in a food processor. Pulse until the pieces are finely chopped and resemble the texture of rice or couscous; be careful not to over-process to avoid a mushy consistency. Set this aside and repeat the process with the remaining florets.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and egg whites using a fork. Add a pinch of salt for seasoning.
Preheat a large sauté pan or wok over medium heat and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are fully set; then transfer them to a separate dish.
In the same pan, add sesame oil, followed by the onions, white parts of the scallions, peas, carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until the vegetables soften. Then, increase the heat to medium-high.
Introduce the cauliflower "rice" to the pan along with the soy sauce. Stir well, cover, and allow it to cook for around 5 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the exterior is slightly crispy while the interior remains tender.
Incorporate the cooked eggs back into the mixture, then remove the pan from heat and fold in the green parts of the scallions.
