How to Make Bacon and Leek Fried Rice

Step-by-Step

Make three cups of rice, I used Uncle Ben's. Then put in freezer for 30 minutes.
Cut up leeks,large carrot, white onion, red onion, celery and strips of bacon into 1/2 inch pieces.
Fry bacon and drain.
Add 1 T. butter and 1 T. of Crisco oil to the pan.
Fry the veggies over low heat-that way the leeks won't get slimy. This will take about three minutes then drain and put on a plate.
Using same pan add 1 T. of Crisco and put the rice into pan. Add the bacon and veggies to the rice and cook for 3 minutes. Add 2 T. of soy sauce and continue to cook for 1-2 more minutes. Serve.
