VEDA Day 15 || The Best Fried Rice Ever

#frugal #frugalmeals #beansandrice
Today I am sharing my favorite Fried Rice Recipe. Its SUCH a basic simple meal and yet its a favorite of all the children.
For this recipe I did:
Cooked 2 cups of dry rice in my Instapot and place it in the fridge overnight
Day of:
Place about 1-2 TBSP of Sesame Oil (like this, https://amzn.to/4dn2tOp (Affil)) in a frying pan along with 1 chopped onion.
Cook for approx 4 minutes, until onions are more translucent.
Add 4-5 cloves of chopped garlic and cook for another minute or two.
Add your cold rice to the pan.
Add about 1/4 cup of soy sauce (I ended up doing 1/3 for this batch)
Use the next few minutes to break apart and heat up the rice. You may need to add a bit more oil, I just did olive oil, about 1-2 TBSP.
Once the rice is broken up fairly well, Add 1 bag of mixed frozen veggies. As the veggies warm up, the ice will melt into water and help everything heat up.
You can add some meat of your choice (chicken, beef, pork, etc)
Warm it all up, add black pepper and I like to add green onion (didn't have any here but it really is amazing!)
This is the SIMPLE recipe. One way to go the extra length (if you have eggs)
is push the rice to the side and pour 2 eggs into the hot pan, scramble them, and then mix it back into the fried rice.
Serve warm!
