fried rice:
4 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
1/2 cup thinly sliced snap peas
1/2 cup diced yellow bell pepper
1 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup thinly sliced green cabbage
1/2 cup peeled, diced carrot
1/2 cup diced celery
1 tablespoon minced garlic
6 cups short-grain white rice, cooked in chinese chicken stock and cooled
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 cup chopped green onion
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
______________
chinese chicken stock recipe:
1 whole chicken, cut up
1 bunch green onions, cut in half
4 garlic cloves smashed
3 inch piece of ginger, whacked open with the flat side of a knife.
1 onion, cut in half
1 teaspoon whole white peppercorns
3 quarts cold water

Steps:

  • 1. THE DAY BEFORE: Prepare the stock and then use it to cook the rice in it the day before you make this recipe.
  • 2. MAKING THE STOCK: Put the cut up chicken and all of the ingredients for the stock in a large stock pan with 3 quarts of water and bring to a boil, then turn to simmer. Simmer for one hour uncovered. Skim any foam off. Pass the stock through a collander to remove the solids. (Save the chicken for soup later. It can be frozen.) Cool the stock to room temperature and store in the fridge.
  • 3. COOK THE SHORT-GRAIN RICE: Use the stock and cook the rice according to package directions until tender. Refrigerate.
  • 4. MAKING THE FRIED RICE: Prepare the vegetables, measure the indicated amounts, grate the ginger, red and yellow bell peppers, red onion, green cabbage, slice the peas, dice carrot and celery, and set aside. Put a teaspoon of oil in a small skillet and scramble the beaten eggs. Transfer them to a cutting board and slice in strips. Set aside. Heat oil in wok, electric skillet, or large non-stick skillet on high heat until oil almost begins to smoke. Add ginger, as well as all vegetables except garlic. Cook for 3 minutes, or until vegetables are cooked, then add garlic. Before garlic browns, add rice and mix rapidly so rice does not stick to sides of wok or pan. Add cooked eggs to vegetables and toss. (I like mine a little light brown) Add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Mix thoroughly and then add pork, shrimp or chicken if desired. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
  • 5. Cook's Tip: For a nice presentation, put the rice on an oval platter. Cut the Chinese Barbecued Pork Tenderloins at an angle in thin slices and "fan" the meat on top of the rice to serve.

CHINESE FRIED RICE



Chinese Fried Rice image

This Chinese fried rice has the flavor those other recipes are missing. Tastes like takeout. I want to dedicate this dish to Bergy, whose recipe "AM & B's Indonesian Mehoon" has inspired this dish. Make sure you season your rice with salt before it cooks. Add some butter to the cooking water, as well. Other seasonings should be added before you cook, as well, so it has time to get inside the rice. If you like sesame flavor, add 1 tsp. of it after you add the green onions, but do not use it as a cooking oil because it easily burns.

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 1/2 tablespoons oil
1 egg, lightly beaten (or more eggs if you like)
3 drops soy sauce
3 drops sesame oil
8 ounces cooked lean boneless pork or 8 ounces chicken, chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped carrot (very small)
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
4 cups cold cooked rice, grains separated (preferably medium grain)
4 green onions, chopped
2 cups bean sprouts
2 tablespoons light soy sauce (add more if you like)

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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality rice: Day-old rice works best for fried rice, as it has less moisture and will hold its shape better when fried.
  • Prepare your ingredients in advance: Chop your vegetables, mince your garlic and ginger, and whisk together your sauce ingredients before you start cooking. This will help you save time and ensure that your fried rice is cooked evenly.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or large skillet will help to prevent your rice from sticking and will give it a nice, even sear.
  • Cook your rice over high heat: High heat will help to create a nice, crispy texture for your rice.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet: Cooking your rice in batches will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Add your vegetables and sauce towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked.
  • Serve your fried rice immediately: Fried rice is best served hot and fresh out of the wok or skillet.

Conclusion:

Fried rice is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make restaurant-quality fried rice at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try!
