Traditional Mandarin Fried Rice
It is recommended to use day-old rice so that the drier rice can
soak up the flavors.
Canola oil
3 eggs
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1 bunch chopped scallions, green and white separated
1 lapchang, diced (Chinese sausage), can substitute with 4 strips of
cooked bacon

3 tablespoons thin soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
Salt to taste
In a wok, add 2 tablespoons of oil and quickly soft-scramble the
eggs. Remove the eggs. In the same wok, coat with oil and stir-fry
garlic and ginger. Add white scallions and lapchang. Add rice and
mix thoroughly. Add soy sauce, white pepper and scrambled eggs.
Check for seasoning. Serve immediately. |
