Fried Rice

Homemade fried rice is quick & easy to make, and if you have left over cooked rice in the fridge it works even better because the rice soaks up the sauce that much better. 😋

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups of rice, cooked in rice cooker

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 onion, diced

1 carrot, diced

1 small head of broccoli, finely chopped

1/2 a head of cauliflower, finely chopped

1 ear of fresh corn

1 handful of frozen peas

Sauce

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 inch fresh ginger

3 cloves garlic, finely grated

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 flat tbsp corn flour

1 stock cube

1 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp honey

1 tsp rice wine vinegar

1 cup water

Method

On high heat, add sesame oil to a pan and flash fry the veg for 5 minutes or so, and then set aside.

In a medium sized bowl, add all the sauce ingredients and whisk well.

Place a new pan on medium heat, add sauce mixture and cook until sauce thickens, then add vegetables.

Cook for a further 2 minutes, and then stir through cooked rice (or noodles).

Serve in bowls & top with coriander & a wedge of fresh lemon.

If we have it, we also top with chopped spring onion, toasted sesame seeds or cashews.
