Directions: |
Directions:Rice: [Tip: The rice can instead be made in a rice cooker following its directions for 2 cups of rice.] In a pot with a tight-fitting lid, add the rice and cold water. Add the piece of fresh ginger and the salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to simmer, cover, and cook for 15 - 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside for about 10 minutes.
Stir Fry: Heat a wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, pour in the sesame oil. Add scallions, ginger, and garlic; stir fry for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in peas and carrots and cook for about 2 minutes. Pour in the eggs and stir fry until they are cooked, about 2 - 3 minutes. Remove ginger from the rice and add the rice to the wok; stir everything together and break up any clumps of rice. Add soy sauce and hoisin sauce and stir some more. Taste for seasoning and add some salt, if needed. [Optional] Stir in cilantro leaves and serve. |
