Fried Rice I Recipes

Steps:

• Combine eggs and salt. In a large skillet or wok over medium heat, scramble eggs in 1 teaspoon oil, breaking into small pieces. Remove from skillet and set aside. , Add remaining 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons oil to skillet. Stir-fry rice over medium-high heat for 5 minutes. Add vegetables, onions and garlic; stir-fry for 5 minutes. Add chicken; stir-fry until heated through, 3-5 minutes. Combine soy sauce, broth, pepper and ginger. Add to rice; stir to coat. Add bacon and eggs; heat through.

Steps:

• In a saucepan bring water to a boil. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, season eggs with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in small frying pan, pour in eggs. Coat the bottom of the pan with the eggs, in order to cook them evenly; cook for about 3 minutes. Flip the eggs, cook one minute more and remove them to a cool surface. Let them cool, then cut them into thin slices. Set aside.
• Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.
• Spoon remaining 2 teaspoons oil into the skillet with the bacon fat. Stir in rice; break up any clumps and toss to coat with oil. Stir in bacon, soy sauce, peas, eggs and green onions. Stir and cook until heated through, approximately 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Put the mushrooms in a small bowl and cover with boiling water and soak until re-hydrated, about 20 minutes. Drain, squeeze dry, and cut mushrooms in quarters. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil in a well-seasoned wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl to coat the pan. Pour in the eggs, swirl the pan so the egg forms a large thin pancake. (Lift the edge of the egg to allow any uncooked egg to run to the center.) As soon as the egg has set, turn it out of the pan onto a cutting board. Cool, cut into 1 inch pieces.
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and heat the remaining peanut oil over high heat. Add the scallions and carrots and stir-fry for 1 1/2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, garlic, chile, and ginger, stir-fry for 1 minute more. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and rice and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the meat, peas, and reserved egg, cook, stirring until heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp oil in wok; add chopped onions and stir-fry until onions turn a nice brown color, about 8-10 minutes; remove from wok.
• Allow wok to cool slightly.
• Mix egg with 3 drops of soy and 3 drops of sesame oil; set aside.
• Add 1/2 tbsp oil to wok, swirling to coat surfaces; add egg mixture; working quickly, swirl egg until egg sets against wok; when egg puffs, flip egg and cook other side briefly; remove from wok, and chop into small pieces.
• Heat 1 tbsp oil in wok; add selected meat to wok, along with carrots, peas, and cooked onion; stir-fry for 2 minutes.
• Add rice, green onions, and bean sprouts, tossing to mix well; stir-fry for 3 minutes.
• Add 2 tbsp of light soy sauce and chopped egg to rice mixture and fold in; stir-fry for 1 minute more; serve.
• Set out additional soy sauce on the table, if desired.

Steps:

• In a bowl, stir together the fish sauce, chiles, and garlic. The sauce can be used immediately, but I think it tastes best if the chiles are allowed to soften and mellow for 2 to 3 hours. Store the condiment in a tightly capped glass jar in the refrigerator for up to a month, though the chiles will have lost their heat by 2 weeks.
• Cut the chicken against the grain and on the diagonal into thin, bite-size slices. Set aside.
• Trim about 1 inch off the bottom of each stalk end of Chinese broccoli. Cut each stalk on the diagonal into slices about 1⁄2 inch thick and 2 inches long. Cut the green leafy parts crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Keep the stalks and leafy parts separate.
• Heat the oil in a wok or a 14-inch skillet over high heat. When the oil is hot, add the garlic and fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the onion wedges and let them brown on the underside, undisturbed, for 1 minute. Flip them and let brown on the second side for 1 minute. Add the chicken, tomatoes, and the stalk pieces of the Chinese broccoli and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
• Add the rice, sweet soy sauce, thin soy sauce, and fish sauce and stir-fry to distribute the sauces evenly and heat the rice. Make a well in the center of the rice mixture all the way to the bottom of the wok and crack the eggs into the well. Lightly scramble the eggs with the tip of the spatula, then let them cook undisturbed for about 1 minute, until they brown on one side. Add the leafy parts of the Chinese broccoli and stir-fry everything together until they are evenly distributed and the Chinese broccoli has wilted, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Transfer the rice to a serving platter or individual serving plates. Dust with the pepper and serve with the lime wedges, chile fish sauce, and cucumber.
