Servings 3 people
Equipment
- wok (optional but recommended)
- Spatulas
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked rice day old
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ½ medium (½ cup) yellow or white onions diced
- ½ cup frozen mixed vegetables thawed
- ¾ cup (2 folded slices) Vegan Egg I used Just Egg (use any eggy substitute you wish)
- 1 stalk green onion thinly sliced
FOR THE SEASONINGS
- 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
- ⅓ tsp white pepper
- ½ tsp sesame oil
- salt & black pepper to taste
- sesame seeds & chili oil (any red chili paste) (to serve - optional)
Instructions
- Prepare cooked rice. Be sure that rice is at least a day old for the best texture. Cooking freshly steamed rice will make your rice sticky and stocky. It will also absorb less flavor.
- Preheat wok to medium high heat. Coat with a tablespoon with oil. Note, if you are using a wok on fire, work fast as ingredients may burn easily.
- Sauté onions and garlic until fragrant. Season with a pinch of salt & pepper. Toss in the thawed mixed vegetables and stir well until well combined. Add your vegan "egg" to sauté. Stir and let it sit for 1-2 minutes to heat up.
- Toss in the rice and stir fry until all ingredients are well combined. Season with soy sauce, white pepper, and pinch of salt & black pepper to taste.
- Turn off heat. Drizzle a bit of sesame oil and garnish with green onions. Add sesame seeds for presentation and chili paste for heat (optional).
