Categories     Rice

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 cups cooked rice
5 large eggs ((divided))
¼ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon turmeric
3 tablespoons oil ((divided))
1 medium onion ((finely chopped))
½ red bell pepper ((finely chopped))
1/2 cup frozen peas ((thawed))
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon sugar
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 scallions ((chopped))

Steps:

  • Use a fork to fluff up the rice and break it apart. If you're using freshly cooked rice, let it stand on the counter uncovered until it stops steaming before fluffing it. If you decide to refrigerate the rice overnight in advance of preparing this recipe, it will clump up; you can then use your hands to break up the cold rice clumps into individual grains.
  • Beat 3 eggs in one bowl. Beat the other 2 eggs in another bowl, along with 2 tablespoons water, the paprika, and the turmeric. Set these two bowls aside.
  • Heat a wok over medium high heat, and add 2 tablespoons oil. Add the 3 beaten eggs (without the spices), and scramble them. Remove them from the wok and set aside.
  • Heat wok over high heat, and add the last tablespoon oil. Add the diced onion and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes. Next, add the rice and stir-fry for 2 minutes, using a scooping motion to heat the rice uniformly. Use your wok spatula to flatten out and break up any rice clumps. Next, pour the uncooked egg and spice mixture over the rice, and stir-fry for about 1 minute, until all of the rice grains are coated in egg.
  • Add the peas and stir fry continuously for another minute. Next spread the salt, sugar, and black pepper over the rice and mix. You should now see some steam coming off the rice, which means it is heated through.
  • If the rice looks a little dry, feel free to sprinkle in some water or chicken stock. Adding some liquid directly to any remaining clumps of rice will also help to break them up. Mix in the scrambled eggs and scallions and serve!

VEGETABLE EGG FRIED RICE



Vegetable Egg Fried Rice image

Light and fluffy are words that should describe well-made fried rice. It shouldn't be weighed down with soy sauce or oil. Using eggs is the key to keeping it light. Cooking the rice right into the wet egg creates a pillowy, fluffy fried rice.

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons cooking oil
4 to 6 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup diced yellow onion
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 cups day-old rice, long grain or jasmine
1/2 cup sliced carrot (cut into half coins)
1/2 cup diced bell pepper
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons white pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 to 3 green onions, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil until a wisp of white smoke appears. Add the garlic and onion, saute 30 seconds. Add the beaten eggs and immediately add the rice, gently press down in small circles to separate the rice grains.
  • Stir in the carrot and bell pepper and cook for about 1 minute. Don't be afraid to scrape rice stuck to the bottom of the pan. Fold in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, white pepper and salt. Continue to stir and fold for about 2 more minutes. Cook until the rice absorbs the sauces and is slightly crisp on the edges.
  • Fold in the green onions and serve immediately.

EGG-FRIED RICE

Don't call the Chinese takeaway - make your own egg-fried rice. Use leftover rice, or cook and dry it on a plate before using so it doesn't stick to the wok

Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Side dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

250g long grain rice
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, finely chopped
4 eggs, beaten
2 spring onions, sliced, to serve

Steps:

  • Cook the rice following pack instructions, then drain, spread it out to steam-dry and set aside.
  • Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large wok over a high heat, then add the onion and fry until lightly browned, around 5 mins. Add the rice, stir and toast for about 3 mins, then move to the side of the pan.
  • Add the remaining oil, then tip in the egg mixture. Leave to cook a little, then mix in with the rice - stir vigorously to coat the grains or, if you prefer the egg chunkier, allow to set for a little longer before breaking up and stirring through. Tip into a serving bowl and scatter over the spring onion to serve.
