SINGAPORE STYLE FRIED RICE RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Cook the rice according to the packet instructions, then drain and leave to cool. If you spread it across a plate, it will cool more quickly.
  2. Now prep the veg – chop everything into strips or chunks that are about the same size so it will be a pleasure to eat. Chop asparagus spears into 2cm lengths, halve or quarter baby corn, matchstick the carrot, and shred up cabbage – you get the idea.
  3. Peel and finely slice the garlic. Peel and finely chop or grate the ginger.
  4. Put a large non-stick frying pan or wok on a medium-high heat.
  5. Beat the egg. Put 1 teaspoon of olive oil into the hot pan, then pour in the egg, swirling it around the pan to cover the base, essentially like a thin egg pancake. Let it cook through, then ease out of the pan with a spatula, roll it up and finely slice.
  6. Put ½ a tablespoon of olive oil into the hot pan. Finely slice the sausage and bacon, then add to the pan. Stir-fry until golden, then go in with the prawns, garlic and ginger.
  7. Stir in the curry paste until everything is coated, then start adding your veg, getting stuff that needs a bit longer in there first like carrots and leek. Keep stirring or tossing and adding the veg until it’s all in there.
  8. Mix in the cool rice and stir-fry until it’s hot through and the veg are just cooked.
  9. Add the soy, then toss in the egg ribbons.
  10. Divide between your plates, sprinkle over the seeds, season to perfection with more soy if you like, and finish with a drizzle of chilli jam. Eat right away – heaven!

Steps:

• Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add onion and bacon and stir-fry 4 minutes. Add bok choy; stir-fry 2 minutes or until leaves have wilted. Add bell pepper, ginger, and garlic; stir-fry until vegetables start to soften, about 4 minutes. Remove vegetables to a bowl. Return skillet to heat; add 1 tablespoon of the oil. When hot, add chicken and stir-fry 3 to 4 minutes or until cooked through. Remove chicken to bowl with vegetables. Return skillet to heat; add 1 teaspoon of the oil. When hot, add eggs and scramble just until set. Add eggs to bowl with vegetables and chicken. Return skillet to heat; add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet along with curry powder and cook over medium-high heat 30 seconds, stirring, until fragrant. Add rice and stir-fry until coated evenly. Cook rice undisturbed until bottom is slightly crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Return vegetables, chicken, and eggs to skillet; add soy sauce and stir-fry 3 minutes longer.
