PEPPER FRIED RICE



Pepper Fried Rice image

I was once amazed to find I could use frozen red and yellow bell pepper strips straight from the package. (I am aware that this is not a revelation to everyone; call me stupid.) The peppers are great in a simple quick dish of fried rice. If frozen vegetables are handled expeditiously, they are often better than buying 'fresh' at the store." It's true. Freezing, especially after blanching (which is almost always a part of the process), locks in both flavor and nutrients. And the use of I.Q.F. (individually quick frozen) technology has become routine, and the results are profoundly better than freezing vegetables in solid blocks. (These products are almost always sold in plastic bags, not boxes, and as a rule you should buy frozen vegetables in plastic bags.)

  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the peppers and corn, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them soggy.
  • Season to taste: Once the peppers and corn are cooked, season them to taste with salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you like. You can also add a squeeze of lime juice or a dollop of sour cream for extra flavor.
  • Serve immediately: Rice with peppers and corn is best served immediately. This will prevent the rice from getting soggy and the peppers and corn from losing their鮮度.
