It always seemed odd to me to go to a chinese restaurant and order fried rice because growing up, fried rice is something you make with leftovers and it's not usually served to guests. Nonetheless, B loves fried rice and here's a simple version we make that's tasty and helps you clean out your fridge!
Fried rice
Ingredients:
- any leftovers in your fridge! which may or may not include:
- some type of tasty meat you can cut up into pieces (used bbq pork here)
- vegetables such as corn, peas and carrots (I used frozen)
- 1/2 onion chopped
- eggs (3-4 depending on how much you like eggs)
- salt, pepper and soy sauce (I've been using Bragg Liquid Aminos which is a pretty good substitute)
- day old rice (this is important so your fried rice doesn't turn out too mushy)
Directions:
- heat up your wok/pan on high
- add some olive oil and stir fry the onions until soft
- then add meat and vegetables and cook till warm
- add rice and stir to mix
- add soy sauce, salt and pepper to taste
- you can fry your eggs in the same pan or in a different one and then transfer it over
- enjoy!
I so enjoy making fried rice. This looks yummy!
