Ingredients
- 180 gram Rice
- 5 pieces bacon
- 1 piece Onion
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 piece Ginger
- 2 pieces Chicken egg
- 4 tablespoons Green peas (frozen)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- Salt
- Black pepper
Instructions
- The most important thing in this dish is properly cooked, or even more precisely, prepared rice. So, prepare a deep frying pan with a tightly closing lid. Measure half a cup of rice for each serving. Initially, I cooked for 2 people and, in accordance with the recommendation, measured 1 cup of rice, which subsequently increased in volume by more than 4 times. So this portion was great for two 🙂 Rice should be washed 4-5 times, while the seeds should be rubbed between the palms. The washed rice is put in a saucepan, water is poured into it so that its level is one and a half inches (1 inch = 2.54 cm) above the rice layer, and brought to a boil over high heat. As soon as the water boils, reduce the heat to a minimum.
- After 20 minutes, the water will disappear and the rice will look like flakes. I'll make a reservation right away, I usually cook rice in a different way, but this method pleasantly surprised me. The cooked rice was crispy, not overcooked. It should be slightly cooled.
- The rice is ready, now proceed directly to the preparation of the dish. To do this, cut the bacon into small cubes and fry in a frying pan until browned. Remove the fried bacon from the pan.
- In the resulting fat, quickly fry the chopped garlic, ginger and finely chopped onion.
- Lightly beat the eggs and pour into the pan. Fry the omelet, crushing it into pieces.
- Add the frozen peas to the omelet and warm it up for a few minutes.
- Add the boiled rice and stir in the pan. Fry everything together for a few minutes until the rice is warm. At the end, add the pre-fried bacon, pour soy sauce, season with salt and pepper.
