10-Minute Fried Rice recipe

Note:
Use organic coconut oil or safflower oil instead of canola oil. Use organic tempeh instead of sausage, etc.  I used Braggs Liquid Aminos instead of soy sauce. You can also use an egg replacement, such as 1 TBS ground flax seed mixed in 3 TBS of water, or omit the eggs completely.

Recipe: 10-Minute Fried Rice
By Amanda Haas - Feb 19, 2012

This simple and delicious recipe is a perfect way to use up leftover rice and small bits of veggies that you have in your fridge. It's colorful, flavorful and couldn't be easier to make!

Serves 4

Ingredients

3 tbsp canola oil
2 medium carrots, chopped
1 cup broccoli, stems and florets coarsely chopped
1 cup pre-cooked sausage, chicken or tofu, diced
4 green onions (scallions), sliced
3 cups cooked brown or white rice (or frozen)
2 eggs, lightly beaten
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
soy sauce or hot pepper sauce

Preparation

Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and broccoli and cook until crisp-tender, about 3-5 minutes, making sure you keep stirring it. Add the sausage (or chicken or tofu) and ¾ of the green onions and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the green onions are soft. Add the rice and stir until it’s warmed through, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, then add the eggs in the center of the dish. Let them sit for about 10 seconds before you start to push them around. This helps set the eggs a bit and leaves them in bigger pieces. Stir until the egg is cooked, taste for salt and pepper, then serve immediately garnished with the additional green onion.
