QUICK PORK FRIED RICE
A few leftovers and bits from the fridge turn into a great dinner in less than 45 minutes! If I have a leftover grilled pork chop or the tail of a roast, I freeze it until I have enough for this dish. You can also use chicken and substitute some of the veggies for bits you are cleaning up from the fridge. Serve with sweet Thai chili sauce on the side.

QUICK-FRIED RICE
Steps:
- Heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high heat in a medium nonstick skillet until almost smoking. Pour in the eggs and a pinch of salt and scramble with a plastic spatula for a minute, then let the eggs set. Stir and lift to make sure the eggs are cooked and no liquid remains, then transfer to a plate and cool. Coarsely chop the eggs and set aside.
- Wipe out the skillet (or rinse, if necessary), put in the carrot and 1/4 cup water, and lower the heat to medium. Simmer the carrot for about 3 minutes, until tender-crisp. Raise the heat to medium-high, pour off any remaining water, add the remaining teaspoon oil, the cabbage, and garlic, and toss. When the greens are wilted, add the rice and eggs and stir over medium-high heat. Stir in the scallions and soy sauce and a drop or two of sesame oil. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Use leftover rice: Day-old rice is ideal for fried rice. It's less sticky and will separate more easily.
- Cook the rice properly: Rinse the rice before cooking to remove the starch. Cook the rice in a pot with a tight-fitting lid. The rice should be cooked through but not mushy.
- Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the rice from sticking.
- Heat the wok over high heat: The wok should be very hot before you add the rice. This will help create a crispy texture.
- Add the rice in batches: Don't overcrowd the wok. Add the rice in batches and stir-fry until it's heated through.
- Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add any vegetables you like to your fried rice. Some popular choices include carrots, peas, corn, and broccoli.
- Add protein: Protein is a great addition to fried rice. Some popular choices include shrimp, chicken, and tofu.
- Season to taste: Season the fried rice with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and/or fish sauce. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper.
Conclusion:
Fried rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It's a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect fried rice at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give fried rice a try!
