Fried Rice


  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 3-4 serves 1x

Description

Fried Rice is probably one of the easiest dinner and this one uses frozen veggies, so less chopping!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely diced
  • ½ onion, finely diced
  • 100g bacon, diced
  • 1½ cups diced frozen vegetables
  • 3 cups cooked and cooled rice
  • 2 eggs, lightly whisked
  • spring onion to garnish

SAUCE

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin
  • ½ teaspoon sesame oil
  • pinch white pepper

Instructions

Heat 1½ tablespoons oil in a wok over high heat.  Add the onion, garlic and bacon.  Cook until bacon starts to golden, about 2-3 minutes.

Add vegetables and cook for 2 minutes to defrost and the liquid to evaporate.

Add the rice and sauce, cook for 2 minutes while stirring.

Push the rice to the side of the wok, add the remaining oil and pour in the egg.  Cook through like scrambled eggs.

Remove from heat and serve garnished with thinly sliced spring onion.

Notes

The rice needs to have been cooked at least a day ahead and cooled in the fridge or freezer.  This allows the grains to dry out, perfect for fried rice.
