Fried Rice
i love making fried rice for the week… it’s super easy and cheap
ingredients
- 5 cups cooked white rice
- 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 package bacon, chopped into squares
- 1 bag frozen vegetables
- 4 eggs
- reduced sodium soy sauce
- salt & pepper
steps
- fry bacon into a wok, careful not to overcook the bacon
- remove bacon from wok and into a paper towel-lined bowl to drain. drain the rest of the bacon grease into a glass jar for disposal
- add a little oil to the wok and brown garlic and onions — do not burn the garlic
- dump all 5 cups of rice into the wok, add pepper, and generously drizzle soy sauce on top of rice. fold rice to combine. the rice should be a nice light brown color
- throw frozen vegetables and bacon into the rice and fold that as well
- in a small pan, make some scrambled eggs. add that to the rice and fold
- keep folding to prevent rice from burning at the bottom of the wok (and also to ensure ingredients are evenly distributed)
- keep on heat until vegetables aren’t frozen
- salt and pepper to taste (not a lot of salt is needed since you put a bunch of soy sauce already)
- boomski.
