Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked Jasmine Rice (or long-grain rice)
- 1 medium Carrot, diced
- 0.5 cup Green beans, trimmed and chopped
- 0.5 cup Frozen peas
- 1 medium Bell pepper, diced (any color)
- 3 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Neutral oil (e.g., avocado oil, vegetable oil)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Prepare all vegetables by dicing the carrot, chopping the green beans, dicing the bell pepper, and slicing the green onions. Mince the garlic and ginger as well.
If using leftover rice, make sure it’s cold and separated into individual grains. If freshly cooking rice, allow it to cool before using.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the neutral oil and allow it to heat up.
Add the garlic and ginger to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Add the diced carrot, green beans, and bell peppers to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to soften.
Toss in the frozen peas and cook for another 1-2 minutes until thawed and heated through.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the sesame oil to the empty space. Add the cooked rice on top of the sesame oil and gently break it apart with a spatula or wooden spoon.
Drizzle the soy sauce (or tamari) over the rice and mix thoroughly, ensuring the sauce evenly coats the rice and vegetables.
Season the fried rice with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Sprinkle the sliced green onions over the fried rice and mix them in gently.
Serve the Dairy-Free Veg Fried Rice warm as a standalone meal or as a side dish. Enjoy!
