mushroom fried rice
to make this mushroom friend rice i used the following ingredients
3 cups undercooked basmati rice
1 medium onion sliced
1 large carrot thinly sliced
2 cm fresh ginger grated
3 cloves garlic grated
400g champignon mushrooms
2 tsp himalaya pink salt
2 tsp whole peppercorns
2 scallions sliced
2 Tbsp sesame oil for frying
sauce
2 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp maple syrup
himalaya pink salt
ground peppercorns
Procedure:
wash and boil the rice in water but drain it before fully cooked. this is a good way to use leftover rice if you happen to have any. the rice should be well drained before frying.
if coarse, grind the salt,
then the pepper.
blend all the sauce ingredients and set the sauce aside
heat most of the oil in a frying pan.
add the sliced onion and fry over medium high heat until transparent.
add some salt and the carrots and continue frying
until the onions just slightly begin to brown.
add the grated ginger and garlic and some pepper. fry just 1 minute
then stir in the mushrooms. reduce the heat to medium and continue frying until mushrooms have lost their water and start to turn brown. don't be in a hurry here. the mushrooms should be quite dry.
add the rest of the oil, stir in the rice and lower the heat again. stir often to keep the rice from burning
but stir gently to avoid breaking it. fry for at least several minutes.
when the rice has been properly fried it will turn color. then pour in the sauce and stir gently. cook another minute or two,
add the rest of the pepper and salt to taste. stir in the scallions
cook 1 last minute and it is ready to serve.
enjoy.
