Best Spicy Vegetable Egg Fried Rice Recipes

VEGETABLE EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil until a wisp of white smoke appears. Add the garlic and onion, saute 30 seconds. Add the beaten eggs and immediately add the rice, gently press down in small circles to separate the rice grains.
• Stir in the carrot and bell pepper and cook for about 1 minute. Don't be afraid to scrape rice stuck to the bottom of the pan. Fold in the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, white pepper and salt. Continue to stir and fold for about 2 more minutes. Cook until the rice absorbs the sauces and is slightly crisp on the edges.
• Fold in the green onions and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large pan or wok to medium-high. Add the scrambled eggs and cook, stirring, until the eggs set and are nice and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

• Add the garlic, Chinese 5 spice, chili flake, chili paste, and salt and black pepper to taste. Stir and cook for 1 minute, until you can smell the gorgeous garlic.
• Add the butter and melt. Stir in the rice, green onions, soy sauce and fish sauce. Lightly stir fry the rice for 5 minutes, stirring a bit, until everything is combined.
• Stir in the sriracha, sesame oil and reserved scrambled eggs.

SPICY VEGETABLE EGG FRIED RICE

Steps:

• If making the rice from scratch, cook it following pack instructions, then drain. Mix the chillies and garlic (in a pestle and mortar, if you have one) with a pinch of salt, to make a paste.
• Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan on a medium-high heat. Add the carrots and stir-fry for 5 mins until tender. Add the cabbage and chilli paste and cook for 1 min more. Tip in the cooked basmati or leftover rice and stir-fry for 1 min until piping hot.
• Push the rice mixture to one side of the pan. Add the eggs to the cleared space and scramble until set. Mix in the onions, peas and soy and stir-fry everything together until the peas are hot.

SPICY OVEN-FRIED RICE WITH GOCHUJANG AND FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• If using uncooked rice, combine the rice and 2 1/2 cups water in a small, deep saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook until all the water has been absorbed, 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes, covered, then spread out on a large baking sheet to cool completely.
• Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Add 1 tablespoon neutral oil to a large rimmed baking sheet, and add the sausage. Cut it into smaller pieces right on the baking sheet. Transfer to the oven to cook, 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, break the sausage into smaller pieces again, then cook until no longer pink, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Add the carrots, scallion whites, mushrooms, brussels sprouts and broccolini to the sheet pan, stir well to coat with the oil, and sprinkle lightly with salt. Cook until the vegetables have wilted, about 10 minutes, stirring halfway through.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the gochujang, tamari and remaining 1 tablespoon neutral oil in a large bowl. Add the cooked rice and stir until evenly coated.
• Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Add the rice, stirring to combine with the vegetables, then press the mixture down with the back of a spatula. Return to oven and cook until rice is getting crisp on the bottom, 20 to 25 minutes, stirring once about halfway through and pressing down again. (If serving with fried eggs, begin cooking them about 5 minutes before the rice is done.)
• Divide oven-fried rice among plates or bowls and top each portion with a fried egg, if using. Drizzle with sesame oil, sprinkle with the scallion greens and serve immediately.
