Healthy Vegetable Fried Rice
I realized with my health that isn't good and my age which isn't to my advantage, I should start to eat healthier. This is healthier my Chinese Fried Rice that I posted, both are great, this one is surprisingly good.
| 1 cup rice of your choice(we use Jasmine Rice, makes more than a cup of rice) |
|
| 2 eggs, lightly beaten(If you choose you can use 3 egg whites or 2 egg whites and 1 yoke) |
| 2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
|
2 Belgium Endive(sounds exotic but if my market has it yours will also)
1 Radicchio (a small chinese cabbage mostly red with a bit of white) |
| 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced into 1-inch pieces |
| 4 scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces(if I don't have scallions, I use shallots) |
| 1 clove garlic, minced |
| 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger |
| 4 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce |
| 2 tablespoons rice vinegar |
| 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil |
| hot sauce if you so choose, as much as you like | | |
