TOASTED COCONUT RICE WITH BOK CHOY AND FRIED EGGS



Toasted Coconut Rice With Bok Choy and Fried Eggs image

Coconut oil toasts rice grains, lightly coats vegetables, and sizzles eggs in this dish, lending its unique tropical taste and richness. You get an extra dose of richness if you leave the egg yolks runny and cut and swirl them into the rice and greens mixture. If you're vegan, you can fry tofu or tempeh in the coconut oil instead. If you're gluten-free, you can use tamari in place of the soy sauce. Here, too, feel free to use prepackaged, trimmed haricots verts if you're short on time, or wax beans, in place of the green beans.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large eggs
3 tablespoons coconut oil
2 cups jasmine or other medium-grain rice (12 ounces), rinsed and drained
Kosher salt
8 ounces bok choy
6 ounces green beans
Toasted sesame seeds, soy sauce and Sriracha, for serving

Steps:

  • Take your eggs out of the fridge so they won't be ice-cold when you fry them.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the rice, sprinkle with salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until the grains start to look translucent and smell toasty, about 3 minutes. Add 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and steam for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, trim the bok choy and green beans. If the bok choy are large, halve them lengthwise, then cut into 3-inch pieces crosswise. Scatter the green beans over the rice (the water will be mostly absorbed) and sprinkle with salt. Spread the bok choy on top of the beans and season with salt. Drizzle or dollop 1 tablespoon oil over the greens. Cover and steam until the greens and rice are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • When the rice is almost done, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set and the yolks runny, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Divide the rice and vegetables among 4 dishes. Slide an egg onto each. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, and season to taste with soy sauce and Sriracha.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups cooked, day-old jasmine rice (or 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice; see Tip)
5 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
3/4 pound mixed fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake and cremini, thinly sliced, or whole shimeji mushrooms
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 pound baby bok choy (about 8 small baby bok choy), trimmed, then sliced crosswise 1/2-inch thick
5 scallions, trimmed, greens and whites thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
3/4 cup frozen peas
2 to 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger (from one 2-inch piece)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Take the cooked rice out of the refrigerator, and set it aside at room temperature.
  • In a large wok or nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons canola oil over medium-high. Add the mushrooms, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 5 or 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet, if needed, then add 1 tablespoon canola oil and heat over medium-high. Add the bok choy, scallions, garlic and jalapeño, if using. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry, stirring frequently, until aromatic and barely crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the mushrooms.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Add the rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted and toothsome, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the frozen peas, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper (if using), and stir until rice is evenly coated in soy sauce mixture, and no uncoated rice grains remain, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the mushroom and bok choy mixture and the basil until basil is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper then divide among bowls; serve hot.

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups long-grain brown rice
3 cups water
1 teaspoon plus 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
4 large Eggland's Best eggs, lightly beaten
4 cups spinach, chopped into 2-inch-wide pieces, washed well
1 bunch bok choy, about 2 cups, chopped into 2-inch-wide pieces, washed well
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
1 1-inch piece of gingerroot, peeled and finely minced
2 large garlic cloves, finely minced
1 medium red pepper, julienned into 1 1/2-inch slices
6 scallions, greens cut on the diagonal into 1 1/2-inch slices and whites sliced down the center first then cut the same as the green ends (plus more chopped fine for garnish if desired)
3 small or 2 medium carrots, cut in half lengthwise, then cut in 1/8-inch-thick slices cut on the diagonal
1/4 cup tamari soy sauce, plus more for serving if desired.
Toasted nori sheets for serving, cut into strips with kitchen scissors

Steps:

  • The day before: Cook rice: In a medium pot, bring rice and cold water to boil on high. Simmer on medium heat for 10 minutes. Cover pot, turn down heat to lowest setting. Cook 15 minutes. Turn heat off and let sit covered 30 minutes. Cool and refrigerate 12 hours or overnight. (If you'd like to make this recipe on the same day, prepare rice and refrigerate at least 4 hours before frying.)
  • The day of: Remove rice from refrigerator when beginning to prepare the fried rice. Allow to warm up for 15 to 30 minutes.
  • In a cast-iron or nonstick pan, heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil. When pan is hot, add beaten eggs. Scramble eggs by moving a spatula continuously in the pan until eggs come together. Stop when eggs are still slightly wet. Remove eggs from pan and set aside.
  • Make sure all ingredients are clean, chopped, and ready before cooking.
  • In a large pot, put chopped spinach, bok choy, and 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook on medium high heat 10 minutes until greens are cooked but still bright in color. Turn off heat. Add 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar and stir. Set aside.
  • In a wok, large frying pan, or large saucier pan, heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil on high. When the oil is hot, add minced ginger and garlic. Stir. Immediately add carrots. Cook until carrots just begin to soften-about 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on stove top. Add scallions, stir, let cook 15 seconds. Add red pepper, stir, let cook, 30 seconds. Turn heat down to medium. Add tamari. Stir to coat the vegetables.
  • Add the rice. Stir to mix thoroughly. Add the cooked egg. Mix. Turn heat to low and cover for 5 minutes.
  • Serve immediately. Portion out greens and top with fried rice. Garnish with nori strips and/or chopped scallions.
  • To get the best fluffy fried rice use one-day-old cold rice.
  • Putting apple cider vinegar on the greens makes their calcium easier to absorb in addition to aiding digestion.
  • Instead of sesame oil, try coconut oil or peanut oil, which work best at high heats, or use a good-quality vegetable oil.
