Fried Rice

I made Fried Rice (recipe below)

 the other day along with a Green Pepper Beef that 'needs something' but we just can't figure out what. (UPDATE - We're thinking that it need a thicker sauce and red pepper flakes)

 

Also made a Green Bean, Pork, and Peanut stir fry  - There was kinda a recipe for this one ... more on that later. (Krista didn't really like the green beans in it so next time I'm gonna try green bell peppers or broccoli)

Fried Rice Recipe

 

Ingredients:

 

4 Cups Cooked Rice

6 Large Eggs

1 Teaspoon Salt

1/2 Teaspoon Black Pepper

4 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil

1/2 Cup thinly sliced green onions

1 Cup peas

1 cup diced carrots

8 tablespoons Soy Sauce (more if needed)

 

Meats (see below)

Choose or combine Chicken, Shrimp, Pork

        (we will some times do all 3)

 

(Use any combination of meats)

1/2 -1 lb chicken breasts - cut into your favorite sizes (we like bite sized pieces)

1/2 -1 lb pork chops- cut into your favorite sizes (we like bite sized pieces)

 Bag of baby shrimp

 

Make the rice and set aside.
Add 1 tablespoon oil to Pan. Cook your chicken or pork (if adding) in a pan seasoning with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Beat the eggs with the 1 Teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and set aside.

We like to heat all the veggies in a pan with a tablespoon of oil before adding them to the wok ... just cause. Cook the peas for about 2 minutes (longer if frozen) then add the carrots then the onions. Set aside.

Add 1 Tablespoon of oil to wok and get hot. Cook eggs until fluffy. Stirring a lot.

Add rice then vegetables to wok. Add soy sauce. stir stir stir
(Add enough soy sauce for a light brown color on rice.)

Add shrimp at end ...

This is a VERY flexible recipe. This is not anything close to the original one I found . Play with the amounts of salt, pepper, eggs , soy sauce and other ingredients and adjust to your taste. The original called to bean sprouts (which were really good in it) but just not available at our market all the time so we generally leave them out.
