In the same pan over medium heat, add oil and eggs, tipping to cover base with egg mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until just set. Remove from pan, roll up and thinly slice.
Add carrot and capsicum to pan and cook for a few minutes.
Add ginger and cauliflower to the pan and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Add bacon, peas and soy sauce and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning.
