Scallion Fried Rice Food

FRIED RICE WITH SCALLIONS, EDAMAME AND TOFU

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet until very hot. Add the garlic, scallions and ginger and cook, stirring, until softened and aromatic, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the rice, red pepper, edamame, corn and tofu and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Make a 3-inch well in the center of the rice mixture. Add 1 teaspoon of canola oil, then add the eggs and cook until nearly fully scrambled. Stir the eggs into the rice mixture, then add soy sauce and incorporate thoroughly. Serve hot.

EGG & SCALLION FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Cook rice. I used a rice steamer. If you use a different method, the ratio may be different. When rice is cooked, spread it out on a large baking sheet & let cool completely.
• Prep everything.
• Chop onions & scallions.
• Beat eggs, add 1TB soy sauce & pepper.
• Heat wok until it is HOT. Add 1TB oil - vegetable/canola/sesame(NOT toasted!) & swirl to coat sides. Add egg mixture, swirl to coat sides. Scrape pan to cook it all quickly, scraping as you go. This will take 2-3 minutes. When all get is cooked, not just set, scrape into a bowl & set aside.
• Add 2TB oil to hot wok. Add chopped onions. Cook until browned & softened, 3-5 minutes.
• Add cooled rice. Every few minutes, scrape up from the bottom, so that the rice on the bottom & sides get a bit crispy. When it starts looking crispy, not burned, add soy sauce along top rim of rice & stir fry/stir up well. Keep turning up from bottom as you go along. I added another TB or so oil along the top rim of rice -- it goes down the sides coating the rice & helps to crisp it up. This will take 5 minutes or more. Take the time to let it cook & get a bit crispy.
• Sprinkle on enough sesame seeds to make you happy & stir that in, continuing to stir up from the bottom.
• Add 1TB (or more) toasted sesame oil to the top rim of the rice & continue to stir it from the bottom.
• Chop up scrambled egg w/spoon & add to rice. Continue to stir from the bottom.
• Add chopped scallions & continue to stir --.
• Season with salt to taste, stirring well between each addition to check seasoning.
• Add more soy sauce and/or sesame oil if it suits you. :).

Add bean sprouts and rice wine or sake and stir-fry until sprouts begin to soften, about 1 minute. Add rice and cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until heated through.

SCALLION RICE

Steps:

• Place a medium-size pot with a lid over medium-high heat with about 2 tablespoons of oil.
• Add the rice to the pan and cook it for a minute, then add the chicken stock.
• Bring the liquids up to a bubble, then put the lid on the pot, reduce the heat and cook until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid, 40-45 minutes (18-20 minutes for white rice).
• Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and stir in scallions.
• Alternately you can cook this in your rice cooker, according to cooking directions. I have to presoak brown rice. Just skip the browning, oil is optional, and add scallions at the end. Fluff and serve.
