Fried rice

We made this amazing deliciousness as part of our Valentines dinner, 2013.

Ingredients

• 6 c. cooked white rice (2 cups uncooked) or, for a paleo version, “riced”/grated cauliflower
• 1.5 c. of frozen peas and carrots mix, thawed (or 2/3 c. chopped carrots and 2/3 c. peas)
• 2 tbsp canola oil
• 3 eggs
• tamari (or soy sauce if you ain’t a glutard), to taste
• sesame oil, to taste (this is the secret ingredient! you’ll probably use about a tbsp)

Instructions

1. Heat a skillet over high heat, poor in oil, stir in peas and carrots
2. Crack in eggs, stirring quickly to scramble with the veggies
3. Stir in cooked rice or “rice” and then shake in some soy sauce and sesame oil until taste is right (it’ll be the color you’d expect from your favorite take-out joint)

Serve with General Tso’s or other Chinese favorite! Or mix in some cooked meat and eat alone as a greasy meal :o)
