Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 2 Cups Uncooked brown rice
- 4 Cloves Garlic
- 2 T Fresh ginger
- 1 Head Broccoli Cut into small pieces
- 1 8 oz Mushrooms (white, mini bella's) Chopped small
- 4 Carrots Chopped small
- 1 Bunch Green onions - use white and green parts Diced
- 2 Cups Frozed peas
- 1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
- 4 T Peanut oil use less if you can
- 3 T Sesame oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Cook the rice per instructions. It is best to make your rice the day before or at least 3 or 4 hours before making the fried rice. Let the rice cool and leave uncovered so it will dry out some.
- In a wok, heat some peanut oil on high. Have all your veggies ready to go because this goes fast! Be ready to stir!
- Add in the onion, garlic and ginger. Stir fry for a couple minutes. Add in the broccoli and carrots and stir fry for a couple minutes. Add in the peas and mushrooms and stir fry for a couple minutes.
- OK, this is where my lack of measuring may get me in trouble. While the veggies are cooking, I start to add in some soy sauce and sesame oil. I like to infuse some of this flavor into the veggies. Salt and pepper too!
- Don't overcook the veggies - you want the broccoli and carrots to still have a nice crunch. Remove from heat and place the cooked veggies in a separate bowl.
- Add some more peanut oil to the wok and turn on high.
- Add the brown rice and start to stir fry. Add some salt and pepper, soy sauce and sesame oil. Keep stirring until the rice starts to brown (I know - it is brown rice already) but you know what I mean.
- Once the rice is cooked add the veggies.
- Stir fry all the ingredients until combined. Taste, taste taste. This is where you can add more soy sauce, sesame oil (be careful with the sesame oil as it can over power your dish) salt and pepper.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately.
Notes
NOTE: I like to serve my fried rice with a side of teriyaki vegetables. You can never get enough veggies right? The teriyaki recipe is coming soon.
