RICE COOKER STIR FRIED RICE (CHINESE STYLE)

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to the rice cooker bowl, stir and turn to cook. Watch the liquid level near the end of the cooking time, as you may want to add a little more water. When the rice cooker switches to 'warm', fluff with a paddle. It can sit on 'warm' if you are not ready to serve.
• I add all the ingredients at once and let the rice cooker do its thing. If you want the vegetables to have more crunch, add them about 10 minutes after you turn the rice cooker on.
• You could easily modify this recipe by adding steamed vegetables, or diced cooked chicken for the carnivores.
• The number of servings depend on how many other dishes you have; for us it makes 3 servings as a side with one other dish, but if you have two other dishes I would say you could get 4 servings out of this.

CHINESE FRIED RICE (THE REAL DEAL)

Steps:

• Prepare the jasmine rice. Combine 4 cups of jasmine rice and 4 cups of water in a rice cooker. Once the rice is cooled place in the refrigerator until chilled.
• Scramble eggs in seperate pan using whatever oil you normally cook eggs with. Make sure to fold the eggs over, so they can be cut into thin strips.
• Heat wok and 3-4 tablespoons of wok oil to medium heat.
• Saute the white onion until soft and partially transparent (usually takes me 3 minutes or so) along with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, frozen peas and/or carrots. ***If you opted for green onions skip this step and saute the peas/carrots in wok oil.***.
• Add the rice making sure to seperate the grains (with fingers) and mix with the vegetables. Add another 3 tablespoons of wok oil, sesame oil, egg strips, ginger, chicken stock, and sugar (green onions if you opted for these).
• Raise the heat to HIGH add soy sauce to desired darkness/taste and STIR-FRY. (I usually use anywhere from 1/2 to a full cup of soy)***it is crucial for the stove to be as hot as possible*****.
• Basically you are going to Stir-fry till all the liquids are dissolved and the fried rice has reached the dryness desired.
• While cooling salt to taste in order to enhance the flavor.
