Hi everyone! Today I made fried rice with pretty much random things that I had found in the fridge. Fried rice is best with overnight rice, so it is no longer soggy but has a slightly hard texture. The key to a good fried rice is to cut up the ingredients to similar sizes. I had zucchini, kolbasa sausage, onions, and eggs. There really isn't a set recipe. Just get whatever leftovers you've got in the fridge. Eyeball the quantity. This is not baking, fried rice is very forgiving with ingredients and quantities. ;)
Steps
- Prep all the ingredients by cutting into bite sized pieces.
- Stir fry the onions and the ingredients (except the egg) so they have a nice brown colour.
- Now slowly add in the egg to the ingredients. Don't overcook it! Set all the ingredients aside.
- Add the rice. Leave it in the frying pan for a few minutes so the rice can crisp up.
- Add in the ingredients that you have placed aside.
- Lightly toss and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Done!
Tips
- Use overnight rice
- Onions, eggs, and pineapples are great complements to fried rice
- Cook the ingredients and fried rice separately before combining them.
