No Fry Fried Rice Food

NO FUSS, NO FRY, BAKED FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together and put in a baking dish.
• Bake at 350F for 1 hour.
• When done, any cooked meat of your choice can be added.

FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Put the mushrooms in a small bowl and cover with boiling water and soak until re-hydrated, about 20 minutes. Drain, squeeze dry, and cut mushrooms in quarters. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil in a well-seasoned wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl to coat the pan. Pour in the eggs, swirl the pan so the egg forms a large thin pancake. (Lift the edge of the egg to allow any uncooked egg to run to the center.) As soon as the egg has set, turn it out of the pan onto a cutting board. Cool, cut into 1 inch pieces.
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel and heat the remaining peanut oil over high heat. Add the scallions and carrots and stir-fry for 1 1/2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, garlic, chile, and ginger, stir-fry for 1 minute more. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and rice and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the meat, peas, and reserved egg, cook, stirring until heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

NO EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Add oil to skillet over high heat. When oil is hot add the cold rice and butter. Stir until butter melts and all of the rice has been coated. Add pepper and drizzle of sesame oil. Continue to cook over med-high heat and stir occasionally. (Here is where I would add veggies if you want them.) After about 5-8 minutes add soy sauce turn the heat down and mix well. Cook for another few minutes to heat through.
• I sample the rice throughout the cooking process to make sure it isn't getting crispy and that I have seasoned it enough. You may need to adjust your heat if your rice starts to get crunchy.
• If you do not have leftover rice, you can cook some up and put it on a baking sheet and place in the freezer for about 10-20 minutes -- works great!

LOW-SODIUM CHINESE FRIED RICE

Steps:

• On low heat place 1 tablespoon of olive oil in large saucepan or wok. Cook beaten egg briefly, breaking into pieces. Remove and set aside.
• Add 2 tablespoons olive to saucepan or wok. Add onions, carrot and peas. Stir-fry for 2 minutes.
• Dissolve chicken bouillon cube in the 2 tablespoons water. Place in pan and add cold rice, garlic powder, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss lightly to mix well and heat for 3 minutes. Add in egg pieces and mix.
• Additional soy sauce may be added to taste. (One cup of finely chopped pork or chicken pieces may be added.)
• Serve and enjoy!

EASIEST FRIED RICE (USING UNCOOKED RICE)

Steps:

• Cook the eggs in a pan with a quick spray of olive oil. I break the yolks and run a knife through them and cook until just set then cut into small strips.
• Fry rice until browned, add stock and cook until moisture is absorbed and rice is tender.
• Add shallots, then egg and bacon pieces, cooked prawns and heat through.
• Add lemon juice (if using prawns) and soy sauce to taste.

QUICK FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan, then tip in the egg. Leave to set for 30 secs-1 min, swirling every now and again, then tip it out and finely slice. Add the bacon and mushrooms to pan, then fry until golden, about 3 mins. Add the peas, garlic and ginger, then cook for 1 min.
• Mix the soy sauce and sugar together. Turn up the heat, add the cooked rice to the pan, heat through, then splash in the sweet soy sauce. Stir through the egg and serve straight away, with more soy sauce if you like.
