• Heat a small skillet over medium heat until warm; add butter and melt, being careful not to brown the butter. Add eggs, salt, and pepper; scramble until eggs are set but still moist, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir scrambled eggs into hot fried rice until eggs are broken into small pieces. Add crumbled bacon and mix well.

FRIED RICE WITH 5-SPICE BACON

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring the broth and 3/4 cup water to a boil. Stir in the rice, cover and cook over low heat for about 18 minutes. Alternatively, use a rice cooker to prepare the rice.
• In a large, deep nonstick skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons oil over high heat.
• Season the pork with salt, pepper and the five-spice powder.
• Add to the pan and stir-fry for 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in the skillet, then add the eggs and scramble for 2 minutes.
• Push the eggs to the side of the pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil and lower the heat to medium.
• Add red bell pepper and carrots and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the scallion, peas, garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 1 minute.
• Add the cooked rice and crisp it for a couple of minutes. Stir in the tamari and reserved pork.

BACON GARLIC FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Slice the bacon slices cross ways into small slivers. This works well if you keep your bacon frozen. Thaw enough to slice and then just slice off your pieces of bacon across so you have a bunch of thin strips. Fry the slivers of bacon in a large wok or pan and then remove the bacon to drain on a paper towel. Reserve some of the bacon fat, about 2-4 tbsp, or use vegetable oil, or use a mixture.
• Lightly fry the garlic in the bacon fat/oil in the same pan you fried the bacon. Don't let the garlic get brown. Add the cold rice and the peas and carrots and let it all warm at high temperature and break up the big pieces of rice. It's ok for there to be some clumps of rice remaining. It is important your rice is cold when you start or the fried rice will get gluey and mushy. Day old rice is best, but if you want to make your rice fresh and then fry it, cook the rice and put in a flat baking pan in the freezer to cool for 30-60 minutes first.
• After about 5 minutes, or once the rice is heated through make a well in the center of your rice. Add your eggs and stir them slightly. I like to cook the egg most of the way through in the well, and then slowly bring in the remaining rice which gives some eggy chunks as well as a light coating of egg on some of the rice. Another option is to lightly fry the scrambled egg separately first and then add it to the fried rice.
• The last step is to add the soy sauce, crumble bacon pieces over, mix, taste and add salt if desired.
• This fried rice is surprisingly simple, but really awesome. I always use the frozen peas/carrots, but other veggies can work. Never use canned veggies, and ones that release water (like tomatoes, mushrooms, zucchini, squash) can be tricky, because your rice can get mushy. Fresh carrots, broccoli, snap peas, bell pepper, frozen/fresh corn have been tried and all work.
