Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup frozen French-cut green beans, thawed
½ onion, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 egg, beaten
3 cups cold cooked rice
1 tablespoon soy sauce, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Place bacon in a large, deep skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until just beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Drain all but 1 to 2 teaspoons of bacon grease from the skillet. Add green beans, onion, and garlic; saute until bacon is crisp and green beans and onions are softened, about 3 minutes.
  • Push bacon mixture to one side of the skillet; heat sesame oil on the empty side, about 30 seconds. Pour in egg; cook until just set, about 1 minute. Stir into bacon mixture to combine. Mix in rice. Stir in soy sauce, a tablespoon at a time, until rice is evenly coated. Cook until rice is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.

BACON FRIED RICE

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups jasmine rice
8 ounces bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 large yellow onion, small dice
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 inches fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 medium carrots, shredded
1 cup diced fresh pineapple
3 tablespoons sake (Japanese rice wine)
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 scallion, sliced
10 to 12 fresh cilantro leaves
4 to 6 sunny-side up eggs

Steps:

  • Add the rice to a medium saucepan and cover with water. Swish the rice with your fingers and then strain through a fine-mesh strainer. Repeat the process 2 more times. Place the washed rice back into the saucepan and add 1 1/2 cups water. Cover the saucepan with a tight-fitting lid and cook over medium-low heat until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and keep covered for an additional 10 to 15 minutes. (If using a rice cooker, follow the manufacturers' instructions.) Fluff the rice with a fork, transfer to a tray and allow to cool in the refrigerator until the rice is no longer sticky, about 2 hours.
  • In a large skillet or wok, cook the bacon over high heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove the cooked bacon and reserve about 2 tablespoons bacon fat in the skillet. Reserve the remaining bacon fat for another use.
  • Return the skillet to high heat and add the sesame oil. Add the onions, garlic and ginger. Add 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/8 teaspoon pepper and stir until the onions are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the carrots, pineapple and remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and 3/8 teaspoon pepper. Continue stirring until the pineapple and carrots are cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the sake, soy sauce and rice wine vinegar and continue stirring. Add the cooled rice and reserved bacon and continue stirring. If necessary, add a touch more bacon fat or oil to the pan to avoid sticking. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer the fried rice to serving bowls and garnish with the scallions, cilantro and a sunny-side up egg on top.

Tips:

  • Cook the rice ahead of time: Cold, leftover rice is best for fried rice because it doesn't clump together as easily.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help prevent the rice from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet.
  • Heat the wok over high heat: The wok should be very hot before you add the rice. This will help create a nice crust on the rice.
  • Add the rice in small batches: Don't overcrowd the wok or the rice will steam instead of fry.
  • Stir the rice constantly: This will help prevent it from sticking to the wok.
  • Add the other ingredients in stages: Start with the vegetables and cook them until they are tender. Then add the meat and cook it until it is browned. Finally, add the eggs and cook them until they are scrambled.
  • Season the rice to taste: Add soy sauce, fish sauce, or other seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the fried rice hot: Fried rice is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Bacon fried rice is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover rice and bacon. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
