Brown Fried Rice w/ Oriental Vegetables
This brown rice is so delicious it could be a meal all by itself.
Ingredients
- 3-4 cups Brown Rice
- ¼ cup Olive Oil
- 1 Onion (very thinly sliced)
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic
- 1 cup Diced Carrots
- 2 tbsp Chopped Pickled Ginger (sushi ginger)
- 1 can Water Chestnuts (small can, drained and rinsed)
Instructions
- Prepare Brown Rice according to directions on box (or pick up a quart from your local Chinese take-out to make this simple).
- In sauté pan cook Olive Oil and Onion until onions are soft (a little browned is okay). Add Garlic, Carrots, Pickled Ginger and Water Chestnuts and sauté 2 minutes.
- Add cooked brown rice and toss.
Notes
If this is going to be a vegetarian's meal you can also add peas, diced peppers and sliced mushrooms for extra color, texture and flavor.
