From the Ultimate Vegetarian Cookbook, this is one of our favorite light meals for those nights when we're just sick of eating so much meat. This one-dish recipe cooks up quick and easy and tastes great. Rice is better if made a day ahead but it works if you make it just before preparation too. It just tends to be a bit more sticky but it still tastes wonderful. Ingredients:
3 eggs, beaten |
salt and pepper |
five-spice powder, a good pinch (optional) |
3 tablespoons sunflower oil |
4 green onions, sliced |
1 clove garlic, crushed |
1 small green pepper, seeded and chopped |
4 ounces fresh bean sprouts |
3 cups cooked jasmine rice |
3 tablespoons light soy sauce |
1 tablespoon sesame oil |
Directions:
1. Season the eggs and beat in the five spice powder, if using.
2. In a wok or large frying pan, heat one tablespoon of the oil and when quite hot, pour in the egg.
3. Cook rather like an omelette, pulling the mixture away from the sides and allowing the rest to slip underneath.
4. Cook the egg until firm and then tip out.
5. Chop the'omelette' into small strips.
6. Heat the remaining oil and stir-fry the onion, garlic, pepper and bean sprouts for about 2 mins.
7. ,stirring and tossing continuously.
8. Mix in the cooked rice and heat thoroughly, stirring well.
9. Add the soy sauce and sesame oil then return the egg and mix in well.
10. Serve immediately, piping hot.
