CHINESE FRIED RICE (THE REAL DEAL)



Chinese Fried Rice (The Real Deal) image

Ok people I have been experimenting with fried rice a great deal, and am pretty much going to rest with this recipe. All the recipes I have tried were just missing something so I have taken the best parts of each recipe and combined them. I am going to use jasmine rice for this recipe because in my opinion it is superior to basmati. Comments/suggestions welcome.

Time 23m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 cups jasmine rice
wok oil (out of all the oils this one is #1)
2 -3 dashes of grated ginger (fresh ginger can be substituted)
1 white onions (chopped) or 4 -5 green onions
3/4 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
3 eggs (scrambled)
1 cup frozen peas and carrot (optional)
2 -3 teaspoons salt
soy sauce (as much as you prefer)

Steps:

  • Prepare the jasmine rice. Combine 4 cups of jasmine rice and 4 cups of water in a rice cooker. Once the rice is cooled place in the refrigerator until chilled.
  • Scramble eggs in seperate pan using whatever oil you normally cook eggs with. Make sure to fold the eggs over, so they can be cut into thin strips.
  • Heat wok and 3-4 tablespoons of wok oil to medium heat.
  • Saute the white onion until soft and partially transparent (usually takes me 3 minutes or so) along with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, frozen peas and/or carrots. ***If you opted for green onions skip this step and saute the peas/carrots in wok oil.***.
  • Add the rice making sure to seperate the grains (with fingers) and mix with the vegetables. Add another 3 tablespoons of wok oil, sesame oil, egg strips, ginger, chicken stock, and sugar (green onions if you opted for these).
  • Raise the heat to HIGH add soy sauce to desired darkness/taste and STIR-FRY. (I usually use anywhere from 1/2 to a full cup of soy)***it is crucial for the stove to be as hot as possible*****.
  • Basically you are going to Stir-fry till all the liquids are dissolved and the fried rice has reached the dryness desired.
  • While cooling salt to taste in order to enhance the flavor.

Time 30m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 teaspoons canola oil, or more as needed
2 eggs
½ teaspoon water
2 teaspoons sesame oil, divided
½ onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup frozen peas and carrots, thawed and patted dry with paper towel
2 cups cold cooked jasmine rice
2 teaspoons light soy sauce
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon sriracha sauce, or to taste
½ teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground white pepper, or to taste
½ teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
¼ cup chopped green onion, or to taste, divided
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste
1 cucumber

Steps:

  • Heat 2 teaspoons canola oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until smoking.
  • Beat eggs and water together in a bowl until smooth. Pour beaten egg mixture into the skillet, let it cook in the oil briefly to begin to firm, and then scramble lightly with a wooden spoon until the eggs are cooked and shiny, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove cooked eggs to a plate.
  • Pour 1 teaspoon sesame oil into the hot pan. Add enough canola oil to cover the cooking surface of the pan and heat to smoking. Saute onion and garlic in oil until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes; add peas and carrots and cook until hot, 1 to 2 minutes more. Return cooked eggs to the pan.
  • Gradually add rice to the skillet, breaking and tossing chunks to break into individual grains and mixing with vegetables; cook and stir until the rice starts to turn a slight brown color and is completely hot, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir soy sauce, fish sauce, sriracha sauce, sugar, salt, 1/2 teaspoon white pepper, and monosodium glutamate into the rice mixture; continue to cook and stir until the grains of rice are no longer sticking together, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove pan from heat and sprinkle green onion and cilantro over the fried rice; toss to mix.
  • Peel outside skin of cucumber with vegetable shredder to create a ragged design on the outside. Slice cucumber diagonally and arrange in a circle around the serving platter. Serve rice in middle of platter, topping with additional green onion and a dash of white pepper.

Tips:

  • Use day-old rice. Freshly cooked rice will be too moist and sticky, resulting in a mushy fried rice.
  • Chop your vegetables and other ingredients into small, uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet. This will help prevent the rice from sticking.
  • Heat your wok or skillet over high heat. This will create a nice sear on the rice and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Add the rice to the wok or skillet and spread it out in an even layer. Do not stir the rice immediately. Allow it to sit for a few minutes, undisturbed, so that it can develop a nice crust.
  • Once the rice has developed a crust, stir it gently. Continue to stir the rice frequently, until it is heated through and slightly browned.
  • Add your vegetables and other ingredients to the wok or skillet. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender and the other ingredients are heated through.
  • Season the fried rice to taste with soy sauce, salt, and pepper.
  • Serve the fried rice immediately, garnished with green onions, cilantro, or other desired toppings.

Conclusion:

Chinese fried rice is a delicious and versatile dish that can be made with a variety of ingredients. It is a great way to use up leftover rice, and it can be easily customized to your own taste. With a little practice, you can make Chinese fried rice that is just as good as what you would get at a restaurant.
