Whether you are looking for a quick and easy dinner or a fun weekend brunch, this fried rice recipe is the perfect solution.

Fried Rice Ingredients:

  • 4 cups of cooked rice (white or brown)
  • 4 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 cup of diced vegetables (such as carrots, peas, and onions)
  • 1/4 cup of soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: diced chicken, shrimp, or pork

Fried Rice Instructions:

  1. Start by cooking the rice according to the instructions on the package. You can use either white or brown rice, depending on your preference. When the rice is cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
  2. In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced vegetables and stir-fry until they are tender and slightly charred, about 5 minutes.
  3. Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the beaten eggs to the other side. Scramble the eggs until they are cooked, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add the cooled rice to the pan and mix everything together. Stir-fry the rice mixture for another 5 minutes, making sure to distribute the eggs and vegetables evenly.
  5. Add the soy sauce and salt and pepper to taste. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. If you would like to add diced chicken, shrimp, or pork, now is the time to do so. Stir-fry everything together until the meat is cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Serve the fried rice hot, topped with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

This fried rice recipe is incredibly versatile, so feel free to add or substitute ingredients as you like. For example, you can use diced pineapple for a tropical twist, or add some diced garlic or ginger for extra flavor. You can also add more soy sauce or other seasonings, depending on your taste preferences.
