Fried rice is one of the first dishes most Chinese children learn to make, and it’s one of my all-time favourite meals! The best part about fried rice is that you can make it from pretty much any leftover vegetables you have in your fridge. It’s a super quick and simple recipe for your family when you’re feeling tired and don’t have anything planned. Feel free to put your own spin on the recipe below!
Ingredients:
2 cups rice
½ large white onion
1 carrot
3 mushrooms
1 cup Chinese chives
2 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon ginger
1 tablespoon cooking oil
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup dark soy sauce
½ cup Shaoxing wine
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon white pepper
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 green onion
3 eggs (optional)
Directions:
Wash and cook the rice, then leave in the fridge until it’s time to make the fried rice. Leftover rice from a couple days ago is best.
Finely mince garlic and ginger, then set aside.
Dice the onions, carrot, mushrooms, and chives. Set aside.
Add the cooking oil to the pan and put in the garlic and ginger. Cook until fragrant.
Add the onions, carrot, mushrooms, and chives to the pan. Cook for a few minutes until the carrots have softened a little.
Add the rice from the fridge to the pan, and cook until the rice loosens.
Put in the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, oyster sauce, and white pepper.
Mix together, then take the pan off the heat and mix in the sesame oil.
Fry three eggs to top the fried rice and cut green onion as garnish. Add a dash of Sriracha if you want a bit of a kick!
