PORK FRIED RICE



Pork Fried Rice image

This is my revised version of another pork fried rice recipe. I often substitute chicken for pork, and it doesn't change anything. I have used both basmati rice and long-grain rice which gives the dish only a slight flavor difference. I have also added celery in the past with good outcomes. Enjoy.

THE BEST PORK FRIED RICE



The Best Pork Fried Rice image

We were inspired by the Cantonese-style BBQ pork fried rice for its sweet and slightly smoky flavor. The pork strips are marinated in a savory sauce with a hint of honey, with extra sauce for seasoning the whole dish. It's important to cook the components on high heat to get a quick sear and even browning. Tossing the food in the skillet is quicker and more efficient than stirring with a spoon. If you don't know how, this recipe is an excellent one to practice with.

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup Shaoxing wine
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons sesame oil
4 cloves garlic, finely grated
8 ounces 1/2-inch-thick boneless pork blade steaks
8 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped
2 packed cups snow peas, thinly sliced lengthwise
1 cup bean sprouts
4 large eggs, beaten
4 cups cooked and cooled rice, preferably jasmine (from 2 cups uncooked)
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup Thai basil leaves, torn

Steps:

  • Whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin, Shaoxing wine, honey, sesame oil and garlic in a medium bowl until combined. Reserve 1/2 cup of the soy marinade for the rice.
  • Cut the pork into 2-inch strips about 1/4-inch thick and toss in the soy marinade until completely coated. Let sit uncovered at room temperature for 30 minutes to let the marinade penetrate. Drain through a mesh strainer, discard the marinade and return the pork to the bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until the oil shimmers and tiny wisps of smoke are visible. Cook the pork, tossing often, until browned but not charred, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat. Cook the onions, tossing often, until translucent and just tender, about 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the reserved marinade and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has almost completely evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the onions to the large bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat. Cook the snow peas and bean sprouts, tossing often, until bright green but lightly browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the large bowl.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat. Add the beaten eggs and stir vigorously for 10 seconds (no, really, 10 seconds). Transfer to the large bowl and break the egg up into 1-inch pieces.
  • Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in the same skillet over high heat. Add the rice, patting it down into an even layer and breaking up any clumps, and let sit undisturbed for 1 minute to fry. Then vigorously toss, breaking up any clumps, until the grains dry out, separate and start to crisp and lightly brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the pork, vegetables and egg to the rice and vigorously toss (or stir) until completely combined and the ingredients are evenly distributed into the rice. Season with the remaining soy marinade if necessary, adding 1 tablespoon at a time and tossing well to combine.
  • Top the fried rice with the scallions and basil before serving.

PORK-FRIED DIRTY RICE



Pork-Fried Dirty Rice image

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable or peanut oil
1/2 pound ground pork
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 scallions, chopped
1 lightly packed cup bean sprouts
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 1/2 cups day old Right Rice, recipe follows
2 teaspoons soy sauce, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon chili sauce (recommended: Sriracha)
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups Carolina rice
Water, for rinsing and cooking

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick saute pan or wok, heat the oil over high heat. When the oil begins to swirl, add the ground pork, salt and ginger. Break the pork up with a spoon and stir while browning. When the pork is cooked through and golden, add the garlic, scallions, bean sprouts and peas. Stir and cook for a minute or so more, then push it to the side and add a bit more oil, if needed. Add the rice and quickly stir to heat and toast the rice. Once a crust has formed on some of the rice, add the soy sauce and chili sauce. Season with more salt, if needed. Incorporate the rice with the rest of the ingredients in the pan. Once combined, push to the sides and add the eggs to the center, allowing the eggs to curdle lightly. Rapidly stir the rice in to coat while the eggs are cooking. The eggs act as glue instead of being left as big curds separated from the rice. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
  • Rinse the rice 3 times to remove the starch. Put the rice in a medium saucepan. Fill the saucepan with enough water to cover the rice by 1/2-inch. Or measure by putting your thumb tip on the rice and filling the pot with water until the water reaches the middle of your thumbnail. Bring the rice to a simmer over low heat, then cover and cook until tender and liquid is evaporated, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let the rice stand another 5 minutes, covered.

HOMEMADE PORK FRIED RICE



Homemade Pork Fried Rice image

Ordering pork fried rice was a favorite in my household growing up, so my mom decided to try to make it herself to save some money. The result: A recipe that you family and friends will swear you bought!

Provided by TOMMYGRRL723

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Rice     Fried Rice Recipes

Time 2h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 (12 ounce) pork tenderloin, cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon dry red wine (such as Merlot)
1 ½ teaspoons brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoons honey
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 eggs, beaten
2 ½ cups cooked rice
½ cup chopped onion
1 cup frozen peas, thawed and drained
1 cup bean sprouts
3 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ cup chopped green onions

Steps:

  • Combine pork, soy sauce, red wine, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, and garlic in resealable zip-top bag. Seal and squish the bag to make sure marinade is evenly dispersed over the meat. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour or refrigerate overnight for best results.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Drain marinade into a cup and reserve. Place pork on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, turning and basting with the marinade frequently, until pork is no longer pink in the center, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
  • Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium to medium-high heat. Pour eggs into the skillet; cook and stir until set but still fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add pork, rice, and onion. Stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to turn translucent, about 6 minutes.
  • Sprinkle peas, bean sprouts, and soy sauce onto the fried rice. Stir to incorporate and cook, stirring occasionally until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add green onions and mix to combine. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice: Day-old rice is less sticky and easier to fry, resulting in a better texture.
  • Cut the pork thinly: Thinly sliced pork cooks quickly and evenly, ensuring that it doesn't become tough.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the rice and pork from sticking.
  • Cook the rice and pork separately: Cooking the rice and pork separately ensures that each ingredient is cooked properly and doesn't overcook.
  • Add the eggs last: Adding the eggs last helps prevent them from overcooking and becoming rubbery.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Feel free to add your favorite vegetables to the fried rice, such as carrots, peas, broccoli, or bell peppers.
  • Season to taste: Adjust the seasonings to your preference, adding more soy sauce, salt, or pepper as desired.
