Category: Cooking & Food : Easy Recipes
So you want to learn how to make fried rice, but you don't want to spend a lot of time or money to do it. Well, you've come to the right place.
There are a few things you'll need before you can make fried rice. I only list them here for the starving college student with few utenils and cookware to work with.
1. Big pot. Obvious? Maybe. Some would use a pan, but it'll just be plain messy that way.
2. A way to make rice. I'd say you needed a rice cooker or steamer, but then this wouldn't be very easy all of a sudden, would it? If you have a steamer, great. If not, you can always make your rice in a pot.
3. Something to stir the rice. This is just self explanatory.
4. Knife.
5. Bowl.
Ingredients. To make the absolute bare minimun of fried rice, you'll need ingredients 1-4. It won't taste or look the greatest, but you may be able to pass it off as fried rice to your friends if you're very convincing.
1. Rice. Whatever brand. For two servings, use half a cup of rice. Just remember, the rice will expand. (Really, some people forget...)
2. Egg. One egg per half cup of rice is my rule.
3. Olive oil. Any oil will do, although i feel olive or canola oil is the healthiest. One tablespoon should be enough.
4. Soy sauce. Rule of thumb--any Asian meal needs soy sauce. You'll be right 70% of the time.
5. Green onins/chives. You'll need two stalks per half cup of rice.
6. Meat. If you want meat, use some. Generally, i precook the meat before i add it. This recipe will not include instructions for adding meat, as it will only get complicated.
7. Frozen green peas/other veggies. These do not have to be frozen, but by simply saying "frozen" i make the receipe sound that much easier to handle.
8. Pepper, sesame oil, etc. To taste.
Procedure. This is only a rough skeleton of how you should do this. Modify it as you wish.
1. Make the rice. Then let it sit. It is important that the rice is not so freshly made that it's hot and steaming. You need rice that has cooled down to room temperature or close to it. You could even make the rice and refridgerate it overnight if you prepared.
2. Scramble the egg in the bowl. Don't cook it yet!
3. Cut the green onions into little pieces. You'll know how.
4. Put the oil in the big pot and turn on the heat.
5. When the oil is hot, scramble the egg.
6. About when the egg is done, add the rice.
7. Try your best to break up the rice.
8. Stir that for a few minutes, then add your veggies and green onions.
9. Keep stirring until the veggies are no longer frozen.
10. Add your soy sauce slowly. Give a little splash and then stir. You want to give the rice a nice light brown color. You also don't want to make it too salty, so taste it after you've stirred in the splash of soy sauce. Add as much soy sauce as you want. Don't add too much because it'll eventually start to make things a bit soggy.
11. The water from the frozen veggies and the soy sause will slowly evaporate, so stir until you think it's the right consistency for you.
Enjoy.
