I really like this recipe. You can use all sorts of things in it like shrimp, chicken, tofu or just eat it plain. I added some cooked green onion and celery to mine. If you add other things add a third egg. I prepared the rice a day ahead so it was good and cold when I made this recipe. I used brown long grain rice, but you can use white if you wish.
Ingredients
-
1-2 largegreen onions chopped
-
2 largeeggs, scrambled
-
1 tspsea salt ( and pepper to taste)
-
4 Tbspcoconut oil, divided (for stir frying)
-
4 ccold, cooked rice
-
1-2 Tbspsoy sauce, oyster sauce, teriyaki sauce etc., which ever you like.
How to Make Basic Fried Rice
- Make sure you have 4 cups of cold rice on hand. I made mine the day before.
- Wash and chop the green onion. Lightly beat the eggs with the salt and pepper.
- Heat a wok or fry pan and add 2 tbsp. of oil. When the oil is hot add the eggs and scramble until just done, don't let this dry out. Remove the eggs, and set aside. Clean out the pan.
- Add the left over 2 tbsp. of coconut oil to the pan, add the rice and stir fry it for a few minutes breaking up the lumps. Add in the teriyaki sauce.
- When the rice is heated through add the scrambled egg, mix it thoroughly. Add in the green onion and serve hot.
- Enjoy!
