Steps:
- First, combine the beef, salt, water, baking soda, dark soy sauce, cornstarch, and oil in a bowl and stir until well-incorporated. Set aside. (We added a bit of water to marinate the beef, which generally is a no-no for beef...but for this fried rice dish, it keeps the small morsels of beef juicy and tender!)
- Next, combine the hot water, sugar, sesame oil, soy sauces, MSG (if using), and white pepper in a small bowl. This is the sauce that you'll be adding to the rice, and it's much easier to have it combined and ready to go before you start cooking.
- Take your cooked rice and fluff it with a fork or with your hands (you can rinse your hands in cold water if the rice starts sticking to them). If you are using cold leftover rice, try to break up the clumps as best as possible.
- Heat your wok over medium high heat, add 1 tablespoon of oil and the eggs, and scramble them until just cooked. You can start scooping them up when they look like they are almost done. Transfer them back into the same bowl you mixed them in and set aside. They will continue to cook in the bowl and you will cook them again in the rice.
- Heat the wok until just smoking and spread 1 tablespoon oil around your wok. Add the marinated beef in one layer, and let sear for 20 seconds. Next, stir fry the beef until about 70% done. Transfer the beef back to the marinade bowl, and set aside.
- With the wok over medium high heat, add the last tablespoon of oil, and sauté the onions until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the rice, using a metal spatula to flatten out and break up any large clumps. If the rice is cold from the refrigerator, continue stir-frying until the rice is warmed up, about 5 minutes. Also, sprinkling a little water on large clumps of rice will help break them up more easily.
- Once the rice is warmed through, add the sauce mixture. Stir the rice with a scooping motion until the grains are evenly coated with sauce. The rice should be completely hot by now. Next, add the beef and any juices from the bowl you set aside earlier, and stir fry for another minute.
- Add the eggs, breaking up any large clumps, peas, and the scallions. Continue stir-frying for another 30 seconds. Push the rice into the middle of the wok to let the perimeter of the wok heat up. After about 20 seconds, pour 1 tablespoon of Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok. Stir-fry for another 20 seconds. Adding the wine using this method gives the dish a little extra wok hei! At this point, taste the rice to see if it needs a little more salt, soy sauce, or white pepper and season accordingly.
- Serve immediately, and, if you're like us, don't forget some homemade chili oil!

Leftover roast beef? Use it here! This recipe's been approved by the Iowa Beef Industry Council. I'm not sure how much they know about Chinese cuisine, but they do know their beef! NOTE: Rice must be cold or it will stick to the pan. Rice that is 24 hours old is suggested. Do NOT use Minute Rice.

BEEF OR CHICKEN FRIED RICE (ASIAN)
The secret to this recipe is to marinate the meat before cooking. This adds additional flavor to an already flavor rich dish. You can use beef or chicken. I use round steak, cut 1/2" thick or skinless chicken breasts. Having the meat slightly frozen will help in cutting it into thin strips.

Steps:
- Slice beef or chicken breast into thin strips.
- For the marinade; combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, one minced clove of garlic, and red chili.
- Marinate meat for several hours (over night is best).
- Thinly slice green onions and coarsely chop the green tops. Separate, as they will go in at different times.
- Grate the carrots.
- Slice the dried chilies lengthwise.
- Scramble the eggs lightly in a bowl.
- Heat the oil in a wok or deep pan.
- Fry the eggs until set, remove and slice into strips.
- Add the garlic and sliced green onions (white part) and the sliced red chilies to the hot oil, sauté for a minute or so, then add the marinated meat, reserving the marinade (beef only). If you're cooking chicken, don't reserve the marinade; just add some soy sauce in its place later in the process.
- Stir fry the meat until cooked, and then remove.
- Add the chilled, cooked rice to the hot oil and stir fry until heated thoroughly.
- Add the meat, green onion tops, carrots, egg slices, and some or all of the the reserved marinade (or equal amount of soy sauce if you used chicken, about 1/4 cup).
- Stir fry until all is heated through.
- Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality beef: Use flank steak or sirloin steak for a tender and flavorful result.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, ginger, and garlic adds flavor and tenderizes the meat.
- Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok helps prevent the beef from sticking and ensures even cooking.
- Cook the beef in batches: Avoid overcrowding the wok, as this can cause the beef to steam rather than fry.
- Stir-fry the vegetables separately: Cooking the vegetables separately from the beef ensures that they remain crisp and colorful.
- Use freshly cooked rice: Day-old rice is more likely to clump together and make the fried rice mushy.
- Add the rice to the wok in stages: Adding the rice in stages prevents it from clumping together and ensures that it is evenly coated with the sauce.
- Season the rice to taste: Adjust the amount of soy sauce and salt to your preference.
Conclusion:
Chinese fried beef and rice is a flavorful and satisfying dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. By following the tips and tricks in this recipe, you can create a delicious and authentic Chinese dish at home.
