Quick Pork Fried Rice

There are so many ways to make fried rice. This one is a quick and easy recipe I use for kids and when we have rice leftover in the rice cooker.

Ingredients:

Eggs
Carrots
Sweet onion
Scallion
Shitake mushroom

Mushroom soy sauce (or just soy sauce)
Sugar
Black Pepper

Steamed rice – the older the better

1. Heat 1 tbsp of oil, and fry eggs, or scramble, however you like it.

2. Add pork to the pan, I leave eggs in the pan but you can take them out first before you add meat.

3. For kids, I add carrots and sweet onion sooner so that it cooked down and soft, but I add them with rice later if it was for me.

4. Add shitake mushroom.

5. Add 1 tsp of (mushroom) soy sauce.

6. Saute until pork is cooked.

7. Add one cup of rice – that’s my usual but you can use more and adjust the condiment accordingly. This rice in the picture is still pretty fresh so it’s stickier that I would like it to be.

Add one more teaspoon of (mushroom) soy sauce, dash of sugar, and dash of black pepper.
