Family Favorite Fried Rice
*10 Baby Carrots Chopped or 2 whole Carrots
*
*1/2 White Onion Chopped (I used a Sweet Onion because that’s what I had.)
*
*2 tablespoons Extra Light Olive Oil
*3 Eggs Scrambled
*2 Cloves of Garlic Pressed or Chopped or 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
*2 tablespoons Butter
*3/4 cup Frozen Peas (Put in strainer and rinse with hot water until thawed.)
*3 cups dried White or Brown Rice Rinsed and Cooked (I used 1 1/2 cups White 1/2 cup Brown for my rice cooker with 3 Cups water.) Follow directions on your Rice Cooker or package of Rice you Use. I added 2 teaspoons of Chicken Bouillon Granules to the water of the Rice before cooking.
*1/4 cup Lite Soy Sauce or to your taste
I like to use a Cast Iron Pan but you can just use a frying pan of your choice. I heat up Pan just until hot and add Extra Lite Olive Oil.
Add to Frying Pan the Carrots And Onions sauté a about 5 minutes. Then add Garlic and sauté 1 more minute. Add Butter, when melted remove from heat and add to cooked Rice.
Add to cooked Rice.
After Eggs are Scrambled add to Cooked Rice along with already added Carrots and Onions.
Add thawed Peas.
Add 1/4 cup Lite Soy Sauce.
Mix altogether.
Ready to serve.
Rice Cooker Rice
I used a rice cooker it took 55 minutes. Follow the directions on your Rice Cooker or do stove top method on the package of Rice.
Finished Rice.
Optional: Chicken could be added to Rice or my family just likes it on the side.
