PORK FRIED RICE
Ingredients
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 ounces Chinese Barbecued Pork, store bought or homemade
3 cups cooked brown rice, cooled
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/3 cup finely minced scallions
1 tablespoon thin soy sauce
1 teaspoon XO Sauce (optional)
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
Directions
Lightly beat eggs. Heat a fourteen-inch flat –bottomed wok or skillet over
medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add 2 teaspoons oil and beaten
eggs, and cook 1 to 2 minutes, tilting the pan so that the egg covers the surface
as thinly as possible to make a pancake. When the bottom is just beginning to
brown and the pancake is just set, transfer to a cutting board. Allow pancake
to cool slightly, then cut into ¼-inch wide, 2-inch-long strips. Cut barbecued
pork into ¼-inch dice to make about 1¼ cups.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and rice to wok, and stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes,
breaking up the rice to separate the grains, until it is lightly coated with oil. Add
the diced pork, peas, scallions, and egg strips, and continue stir-frying 3 to 4
minutes, or until rice is beginning to brown slightly. Add soy sauce, XO Sauce,
salt, and pepper, and stir-fry 1 more minute, or until well combined. Serve
immediately.
Serves 4-6
