Healthy Seasonal Fried Brown Rice Recipe
I love fried rice any time of the day! I just find it so satisfying despite it being quite heavy. That's why I'm sharing this wonderful seasonal fried brown rice that you'll love.
Ingredients
1 cup brown rice - unprepared
2 cups water
⅓ pound ground pork (minced pork)
½ cups zucchini - diced and seeds removed
¾ cup carrots - diced
½ cup red onion - diced
¾ cup red pepper (red capsicum) - diced
2 cloves garlic - minced
2 tablespoons tamari sauce - gluten-free soy sauce
¼ teaspoon sea salt
3 medium egg
1 to 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
- Prepare brown rice according to package directions. You can also use a rice cooker. I still prepare mine the old fashioned way. I bring the brown rice and water to a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Cook for 60 minutes without lifting the lid.
- Meanwhile, you can dice all your veggies as directed above. Or, if you did that on your kitchen prep day, relax for about 45 minutes. Then, stir fry the pork in coconut oil in a wok or deep saute pan over medium to medium-high heat (depending on your range).
- Once the pork is browned, add veggies oil until tender. Remove veggies from the pan and quickly scramble the three eggs.
- Now you can add the rice, veggies, sea salt and tamari to the wok and mix it all. It is ready to serve.
