Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Brown rice
- 300 grams Chicken breast, diced
- 3 large Eggs
- 150 grams Shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 4 medium Shallots, thinly sliced
- 3 large Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 small Red chili, thinly sliced
- 100 grams Green beans, chopped
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons Kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Pepper
- 3 tablespoons Spring onions, chopped
- 1 medium Cucumber, sliced
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
Instructions
Cook the brown rice as per package instructions. Once cooked, spread it on a tray and let it cool to prevent clumping.
In a large wok or frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken breast and stir-fry until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan, then add the shrimp and stir-fry until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the sliced shallots, minced garlic, and red chili, stir-frying until fragrant and the shallots are translucent.
Push the shallot mixture to one side of the pan, and crack the eggs into the empty space. Scramble the eggs until fully cooked, and then mix with the shallot mixture.
Add the cooked chicken and shrimp back into the pan, then stir in the chopped green beans. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the beans are tender-crisp.
Stir in the cooled brown rice, breaking up any clumps, and toss well to combine with the rest of the ingredients.
Add soy sauce, fish sauce, and kecap manis, mixing thoroughly to ensure the rice is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Continue to stir-fry everything for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and for the fried rice to be heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped spring onions.
Serve the nasi goreng with sliced cucumber and tomato on the side.
