Fried Rice
This fried rice dish is, like most of my recipes, pretty easy. I love white rice, especially after a work-out because it provides glucose to replenish your muscle stores that have gotten depleted (becomes converted to glycogen). I am constantly getting more and more influenced by asian foods. Just the other day in the grocery store I went down the international section and found rice noodles with two ingredients-- rice and water. For me I always find those things once I become aware of them. I may have passed that a hundred times, but never thought of looking at it because it was mixed in with all the other noodles! I ended up making a yummy stir-fry with that, which I will post sometime in the future (I am doing some trial and error to get the most delicious dish). Anyways, here is the fried rice recipe...
Ingredients
- 2 cups Basmati Lundberg white rice, this brand has the least amount of arsenic in it and is delicious
- 4 eggs, omit, if vegan or egg allergy
- 1 package frozen organic peas
- 3 whole carrots, chopped
- 1 sweet onion, roughly chopped
- 2 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp roasted sesame seed oil
- 1 tbsp red peper flakes
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 5 tbsp San-J Gluten-Free low-sodium soy sauce
Instructions
- Bring your rice to a boil. In the meantime, chop your carrots, onions, and garlic.
- In a large pan, heat up oil and add in onion and garlic on medium-heat until they become translucent.
- In another pot (or if your rice is done you can use that pot) boil your peas and chopped carrots together until soft, about 10-15 minutes.
- With the peas and carrots done, add the rice, peas, and carrots to the pan and mix together with the onions on low-med heat. Add salt, pepper, 1 tbsp roasted sesame oil and red pepper flakes, stirring frequently.
- Now crack your eggs over the rice and stir immediately so the egg does not stay together, but mixes in to the rice.
- Add in your soy sauce (more if desired) and then remove from heat. Serve immediately!
