FDP Cookbook : Side Dishes : Vegetable Fried Rice (Americanized)
(submitted by shoebox22 )

Ingredients

1 cup uncooked rice
2 cups water
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1 chicken boullion cube
2-4 Tbl chopped fresh onion
1 clove garlic (minced)
1 small stalk celery (chopped)
2 Tbl real butter
2 Tbl vegetable oil
1 beaten egg
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
1/4 tsp sesame oil
soy sauce

Directions

In medium saucepan place water, boullion cube, parsley, and rice. Stir and prepare as directed. Set aside. (Rice can be cooked the day before or can be leftover)

The trick to this rice is moving quickly. You will be using hot temperatures so you must keep stirring to keep from burning any of the steps. I use a metal flat egg-turner type spatula and an iron skillet because it can take the high heat without hot spots.

In hot iron skillet, spread vegetable oil. Set heat to medium high. Quickly drop egg and chop and cook until almost done. Add garlic, onion, and celery. Stir quickly with egg, about 1 minute. Add frozen veggies and the sesame oil. Stir quickly, about 2 minutes. Add prepared rice and butter and soy sauce to taste (about 1/8 cup?). Keep stirring until butter is melted and rice has absorbed any liquids, about 5 minutes max. Remove from heat and enjoy. You may want additional soy sauce, just don't overdo it.
