CHINESE SAUSAGE FRIED RICE
Traditionally fried rice was prepared with leftovers and overnight rice. There was no special recipe to fried rice. Look in your fridge or pantry for what you think could enhance the flavor of leftover rice. If you are looking to cook a different fried rice, Chinese style, here's one. If rice is cooked slightly dry or 1 day old, the output will turn out better.

SAUSAGE FRIED RICE
My mom often substituted the ground sausage with leftover pork roast from Sunday dinner. Leftover ham would work well too. Feel free to play around with the vegetables, using different kinds or omitting what you don't like. Other seasonings I sometimes throw in teriyaki sauce (instead of soy sauce), sesame oil, and/or a little bit of red pepper. All seasonings are normally added by taste. Food processing the vegetables gives the fried rice a more colorful presentation along with encouraging those who don't like vegetables to eat their vegetables.

Steps:
- Start the rice cooking if you don't have some on hand already.
- Cook the meat in a frying pan and drain the grease if it was raw to begin with.
- In a food processor, chop the onions, carrot, broccoli, mushrooms and zucchini. Of course, you don't have to chop the veges this small. You can cut them up by hand into larger pieces if you wish.
- Saute the veges in a wok or large skillet with a little margarine and oil. When veges, meat and rice are done put all into the large skillet and toss together evenly.
- Add oriental ramen seasoning packets, clam sauce, soy sauce, salt, pepper and garlic salt. With the oriental ramen seasoning you can just throw the noodles away (as my mom used to, ramen is cheaper than buying oriental seasoning packets) or you can save them for the noodles in a stir fry for some other time as I do. (In fact, I'll post a recipe called "Ramen Stir fry"). Toss the fried rice to disperse the flavors.
- Add cooked egg, snow peas, cabbage and green onions. Warm them up in the fried rice. They don't really need to be cooked, just left crunchy.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce with the hoisin and vinegar.
- Heat a wok or large skillet to medium-high. Brown the pork and remove with a slotted spoon.
- Next, brown the Chinese sausages (careful -- they burn quickly!). Remove from the pan with slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add the oils and the onion, ginger, garlic and pepper, and cook until it just starts to brown.
- Return pork and sausages to pan. Add the rice, breaking up any lumps with your hands as you add it to the wok, and stir-fry until heated through and lightly browned in spots.
- Stir the hoisin-soy sauce, add it to the wok and stir-fry until nearly absorbed.
- Push the rice to one side of the pan, add the egg and scramble.
- . Stir in the cilantro, sesame seeds and pineapple.
Tips:
- Use day-old rice. This will help the rice stay separate and not become mushy.
- Cook the sausage over medium heat. This will help it render its fat and develop flavor.
- Add the vegetables to the pan in order of their cooking time. This will help them all cook evenly.
- Use a large pan or wok. This will give the rice and vegetables plenty of room to cook.
- Stir the rice and vegetables frequently. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
- Season the rice with soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Serve the sausage fried rice immediately. This is when it is at its best.
Conclusion:
Sausage fried rice is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice and sausage. This dish is packed with flavor and is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give sausage fried rice a try.
