CLASSIC RESTAURANT FRIED RICE

Fried rice comes in many forms and taste. Filipino fried rice has a more garlicky taste. I tried to fry my rice once using ginger as one of my main ingredients and it taste differently from the regular fried rice and I like it's exotic taste. But unfortunately I was the only one who appreciated it. My family like to eat the regular stuff made by sauteing garlic and for the flavoring either salt or soy sauce to give that reddish glow. You know much like that soy sauce T.V. commercial of Manny Pacquiao together with mom Dionisia.

Anyway this one is more westernized with its green peas and carrot and I tried this so many times. My wife called it "chao fan" after the fried rice of Chow King because I added minced or cube pork. This fried rice is a bit yellowish because of the egg. Try this sometimes the kids would love it.

Ingredients:

1 cup green peas fresh or packed
1 cup carrots cut into small cubes
3 cloves garlic (minced)
2 eggs (beaten)
1 cup pork (cubed or minced)
1/2 teaspoon salt
pinch of ground pepper
seasoning (optional)

Procedures:

In a small saucepan boil 1 cup of pork minced or cubed. When done take the pork then boil in the pork stock 1 cup of green peas and 1 cup cubed carrot. Heat a wok and saute garlic till it turns a bit brownish add the pork stirring constantly then add beans, carrot and rice. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then add the egg slowly while stirring the rice to make the absorption evenly. When everything is cooked and the rice turns to to a light yellow color turn off the heat then serve. Best serve for breakfast together with longganisa, tocino or tapa and even with fried fish like tinapa, daing or even tuyo.

HAPPY EATING!!!
