Food Storage Friday

Fried Rice! Seriously, this is Tepan-grill quality stuff. I'm afraid it's not totally food-storage friendly, though.


The ingredients are super basic, and regular items that most people always have available.
Rice
Eggs (2 per person makes a pretty substantial meal)
About 1/3 of an onion
Carrots
Soy sauce
Salt, pepper
Butter


Finely chop your onion and carrots.


Saute in melted butter on medium heat.


Once heated through and slightly softened, add the rice. Add more butter, if desired.


Part the rice to one side of the pan.


add the eggs, scramble well, then mix into the rice.


If you crack the eggs into the rice or mix while the eggs are still wet, its fine. I prefer mine separated.


Add soy sauce (or for a gluten-free meal, nix the soy sauce) and season with salt and pepper.


Happy husband!

  1. Thanks Tess. I make fried rice often, but had never cooked the eggs separately and then mixed them in. I like your way much better. Also, I add diced celery and red and green pepper, and at the last minute, frozen corn and peas. Yum. I appreciate your posting all these ideas.
