Ingredients
- 500g cooked jasmine or long-grain rice, chilled
- 1–2 tbsp Spiceworks Aussie Takeaway Fried Rice Seasoning, to taste
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/2 red capsicum, thinly sliced
- 1/2 yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
- 3 spring onions, chopped
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)
- Fresh coriander, to garnish (optional)
- Sweet chilli sauce, to serve (optional)
Method
- Prepare the cooked rice in advance and refrigerate until chilled. Gently separate the grains with a fork to prevent clumping during cooking.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the pan and scramble gently until fully cooked. Transfer the eggs to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the sliced red and yellow capsicum and stir-fry for approximately 2–3 minutes until slightly tender but still colourful and crisp.
- Add the chopped spring onions, reserving a small amount for garnish. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
- Add the chilled cooked rice to the wok. Stir-fry for approximately 3–4 minutes, breaking up any remaining clumps and mixing the rice evenly with the vegetables.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of Spiceworks Aussie Takeaway Fried Rice Seasoning over the rice. Toss thoroughly until the seasoning is evenly distributed. Taste and add more seasoning if needed.
- Return the scrambled eggs to the wok and gently fold them through the seasoned rice.
- If using sesame oil, drizzle a small amount over the fried rice and toss briefly to combine.
- Continue stir-frying until everything is thoroughly heated and the rice is steaming hot.
- Remove from the heat and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with the remaining spring onions and fresh coriander, if desired.
- Serve immediately with your favourite chilli sauce on the side.
