Chinese Style Fried Rice
Housewives tend to put many ingredients into
fried rice, but the result is not always as tasty as
that which a good restaurant with an eye to economy
and greater skill can serve. Try this for minimum
ingredients:
Ingredients
- 7 to 8 cups cooked, cold rice
- 6 large Chinese sausages
- 1 tablespoon (or to taste) salt
- 5 tablespoons oil
- 2 to 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 5 eggs
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 onions, peeled and sliced
How to cook
Put rice in basin, break up, and put in salt, soy
sauce, and 1/2 of pepper. Mix with fingers till
thoroughly homogenized. Put whole sausages into a
pan with 4 tablespoons water. Cover and cook till
water is absorbed. Cut sausages in diagonal slices
1/8 inch thick, fry in a trace of oil till fragrant.
Drain and set aside. Beat eggs with large pinches
salt and pepper. Pour out excess oil from sausage
pan leaving just enough for omelets. Fry eggs, drain
out as omelets, cut into short strips.
Add rest of oil to pan, heat, put in sliced
onions, and before they brown, put in mixed rice,
keeping fire very hot and tossing. Keep on at
spitting heat till all parts get frying treatment
well. Mix into the pan the fried sausages and egg
and keep tossing. Add rest of pepper, correct for
salt, and serve at once, with: Onion and lime relish
Clear pork broth Hot Tea.
