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
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
3 cups cold cooked long-grain white rice
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Steps:

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat and then swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil. When the oil begins to smoke, add the egg and swirl the skillet to make a flat egg pancake that's only half set, about 10 seconds; scoop onto a plate.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon oil, then add the spinach, broccoli, bell pepper, carrots, snow peas, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the rice, stirring to break up any clumps, and spread it out in the skillet. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Return the egg to the skillet and cook, stirring and breaking up the egg, to mix it in thoroughly, about 1 minute. Season with additional salt if needed. Stir in the sesame oil and serve.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 large button mushrooms, cut into 1/4-inch slices (about 2 cups)
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 1/4 cups)
1 small yellow onion, finely diced (about 1 cup)
2 cups long-grain rice
1 tablespoon kosher or fine sea salt
4 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or other heavy 3-quart pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, red pepper and onion and cook stirring, until the vegetables are softened, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the rice and the salt and stir to coat the rice with oil. When the rice starts to look "chalky," pour enough water into the pan to cover the rice by 1-inch. Raise the heat to high, bring the water to a boil, and boil until the level of the water meets the level of the rice.
  • Reduce the heat to very low, give the rice a very thorough stir, and cover the pot. Cook until the rice is tender but with a little bite, about 20 minutes. Do not uncover the pot or stir the rice while it cooks. Fluff with a fork before serving. Stir in the scallions and transfer to a serving bowl.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less moist and will not clump together as easily when fried.
  • Chop your vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a large wok or skillet: This will give you plenty of space to stir-fry the rice and vegetables.
  • Heat your wok or skillet over high heat: This will help create a nice sear on the rice and vegetables.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet: If you add too much rice or vegetables at once, they will not cook evenly.
  • Stir-fry the rice and vegetables in batches: This will help prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Add the sauce to the rice and vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Serve the fried rice immediately: This is when it is at its best.

Vegetable lovers fried rice is a delicious, easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice and vegetables. With a few simple tips, you can make vegetable lovers fried rice that is sure to please everyone at your table.
