Vegetable fried rice is a classic Asian dish that is both delicious and easy to make. It is typically made with rice, vegetables, eggs, and soy sauce, but there are many variations. This article provides three recipes for vegetable fried rice: a basic recipe, a vegetarian recipe, and a vegan recipe. Each recipe includes step-by-step instructions and a list of ingredients. The basic recipe is a good starting point for those who are new to making fried rice. It includes white rice, vegetables such as carrots, peas, and corn, eggs, and soy sauce. The vegetarian recipe is similar to the basic recipe, but it omits the eggs. The vegan recipe is similar to the vegetarian recipe, but it also omits the soy sauce and uses vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. All three recipes are easy to follow and can be made in about 30 minutes. They are a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables, and they are a healthy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large egg, beaten
Kosher salt
2 cups baby spinach
1/2 cup chopped broccoli florets
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup shredded carrots
1/4 cup thinly sliced snow peas

VEGETABLE SHRIMP FRIED RICE



Vegetable Shrimp Fried Rice image

Someone once described to me their version of "the perfect fried rice". This is hardly "the best" by most culinary standards, I'm sure, but it fit their criteria to a tee: dark rice, (not brown rice, but white rice that is dark) separate grains, not sticky and oily, NO peas, NO carrots, EXTRA bean sprouts. I managed to solve my problem of getting the rice "dark", (without using sooo much soy sauce that it turned into a salt lick), by making the rice using vegetarian mushroom broth instead of water. I am by no means an expert in wok cooking, but I tried to describe to the best of my ability the frenzied way I usually make this rice. The key, I find, for all wok cooking is to have all you stuff prepped and ready to go, cuz once you start, there's no turning back! Also, be sure to have a plate ready for the cooked shrimp and egg when they're removed from the heat.

VEGETABLE FRIED RICE



Vegetable Fried Rice image

Amanda Cohen, the chef at Dirt Candy in Manhattan, loves how easy it is to make fried rice. "If you're a chef, the idea of cooking at home on your one night off is like some kind of terrible nightmare," she said. "Takeout becomes your best friend. but before long half your fridge is taken up by those little white cartons of rice." At home, she digs into those cartons to make fast batches of vegetable fried rice, and she combats the threat of blandness by stocking her freezer in advance with her Secret-Weapon Stir-Fry Sauce: small, dark green ice blocks of puréed garlic, ginger, cilantro, parsley and other ingredients, which she freezes in ice-cube trays (they can be slipped directly into the hot pan). She uses brussels sprouts, fennel, chard and mushrooms, but this dish is the definition of flexibility. "As long as you maintain the proportions, this recipe can take any vegetable you throw at it," she said. "Think of it as a chance to clean out your crisper drawer."

Categories     dinner, lunch, quick, main course

Time 15m

Yield 2 main course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon sesame oil
4 tablespoons canola oil
1 cup of trimmed and quartered brussels sprouts
1 cup diced fennel
2 cups chopped chard
1 cup chopped cremini mushrooms
4 loosely packed cups of leftover rice (about 1 large, quart-size carton, or 2 small pint-size cartons)
Rice wine vinegar, to taste
4 frozen cubes (or 4 tablespoons fresh) Secret Weapon Stir-Fry Sauce (see recipe)
Soy sauce, to taste
Fish sauce, to taste
Hot sauce, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat sesame oil and canola oil in a large pan or a wok over medium-high heat until the oil shimmers. Add the vegetables and stir constantly until they have started to soften and brown, about 4 minutes.
  • Toss in the rice, and use a wooden spoon or spatula to break up the clumps. Some of the rice will stick to the pan, but don't panic. The older and drier the rice, the longer this takes. If it starts sticking a lot, add a dash of rice wine vinegar or water. Keep stirring until the rice softens and becomes slightly translucent.
  • Add the frozen Stir-Fry Sauce cubes, and keep stirring as they melt and coat the rice. Transfer the rice into a bowl and season to taste with soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, fish sauce or hot sauce, or all four.

  • Stir in reserved ginger.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less sticky and will produce better fried rice. If you don't have day-old rice, spread freshly cooked rice in a thin layer on a baking sheet and let it cool completely before using.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the rice from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan.
  • Use high heat: High heat is essential for getting the perfect texture in fried rice. Make sure your wok or skillet is very hot before adding the ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok: If you overcrowd the wok, the rice will steam instead of fry. Add the ingredients in batches, if necessary.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more variety of vegetables you use, the more flavorful your fried rice will be. Some good options include carrots, peas, broccoli, bell peppers, and onions.
  • Add protein: Protein is a great way to add extra flavor and texture to fried rice. Some good options include chicken, shrimp, tofu, and eggs.
  • Use a light touch: Don't over-stir the rice. Stir it gently to prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Season to taste: Season the fried rice with soy sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.

Conclusion:

Fried rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients. By following these tips, you can make the perfect fried rice at home. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give fried rice a try!
