An East meets West fried rice inspired something similar I ate at the popular Chopsuey restaurant in Dempsey Hill, Singapore.
Ingredients
2 Tbsp | Peanut oil |
1 clove | Garlic, crushed |
2 cups | Jasmine rice, cooked (Main) |
2 | Eggs, beaten |
½ cup | Baby spinach, finely chopped |
¼ cup | Thai basil leaves, and mint, finely chopped |
2 tsp | Soy sauce |
¼ cup | Pine nuts, toasted |
Directions
- Heat oil in a hot wok, add garlic then rice, stirring to coat well.
- Move the rice to one side and pour the eggs in to the other side, stirring until egg is just set and well broken up. Mix the egg through the rice, add the spinach, herbs and soy sauce and stir well until all is thoroughly mixed and warm through.
- Spoon into a bowl and press down with the back of the spoon. Place a serving plate over top of the bowl and turn it over. The rice will come out in the bowl shape on the plate. Sprinkle over toasted pine nuts to serve.
