Failsafe Fried Rice Recipes

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine rice and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, boil carrots in water about 3 to 5 minutes. Drop peas into boiling water, and drain.
• Heat wok over high heat. Pour in oil, then stir in carrots and peas; cook about 30 seconds. Crack in eggs, stirring quickly to scramble eggs with vegetables. Stir in cooked rice. Shake in soy sauce, and toss rice to coat. Drizzle with sesame oil, and toss again.

Steps:

• Heat oil in frying pan and cook the eggs as an omelet, set aside to cool and then dice up.
• Fry onions, shredded beans and bean shoots till they are wilted.
• Add rice and cook until heated through and slightly browned.
• When cooked add the golden syrup mixture to give the flavor of soy sauce.

Steps:

• Fill a roomy saucepan with water, bring to the boil and tip in a heaped teaspoon of salt - the water will bubble furiously. Pour in the rice, stir once and return to the boil, then turn the heat down a little so that the water is boiling steadily, but not vigorously.
• Boil uncovered, without stirring (this makes for sticky rice) for 10 minutes. Lift some out with a slotted spoon and nibble a grain or two. If they're too crunchy, cook for another minute and taste again. They should be tender but with a little bite.
• Drain the rice into a large sieve and rinse by pouring over a kettle of very hot water. Leave to drain well, then tip into a warm serving dish. Serve the rice as it is, or fork through a little butter and parsley to jazz it up.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan, then tip in the egg. Leave to set for 30 secs-1 min, swirling every now and again, then tip it out and finely slice. Add the bacon and mushrooms to pan, then fry until golden, about 3 mins. Add the peas, garlic and ginger, then cook for 1 min.
• Mix the soy sauce and sugar together. Turn up the heat, add the cooked rice to the pan, heat through, then splash in the sweet soy sauce. Stir through the egg and serve straight away, with more soy sauce if you like.
