We have detailed instructions in our post on\u00a0How to Make Perfect Brown Rice, either on the stove, or in any rice cooker.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you are making brown rice fresh the same day, let the cooked rice cool completely before using it. It\u2019s best to transfer the rice from the pot to a sheet pan and fluff it with a fork, so it can dry out and cool simultaneously.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day-old brown rice also works nicely, as cold rice clumps are drier and easily broken apart in the wok. Simply take the brown rice out of the refrigerator, wet your hands with a little water, and break up any clumps so you have individual rice grains. Rinse your hands with a little more water if rice sticks to your hands.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MARINATE THE MEAT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If using beef, chicken, or pork, add 1 tablespoon water, 1\u00bc teaspoons dark mushroom soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to the meat. Mix until all the liquid is absorbed by the meat to tenderize and add moisture. If you\u2019re using shrimp, just omit the dark mushroom soy sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, mix in 1 teaspoon cornstarch and set aside. We made a version with beef, but you can pick any meat of your choosing or go vegetarian with a vegetable fried brown rice.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">PREPARE SAUCE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mixing your sauce ahead of time is much easier than adding everything individually to a hot wok. In a small bowl, mix 2 teaspoons hot water and \u00bc teaspoon granulated sugar until dissolved. Stir in \u215b teaspoon ground white pepper, \u00bd teaspoon sesame oil, 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, and \u00bd teaspoon MSG if using. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SCRAMBLE EGGS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Heat the\u00a0wok\u00a0until just smoking. Spread two tablespoons of vegetable oil evenly around the wok, and add the beaten eggs. Turn the heat down and stir the eggs until scrambled. Transfer back to the same bowl, and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEAR MEAT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Heat the wok until smoking. Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the marinated meat to the wok. Spread it out in one single layer, and sear for 30 seconds on each side. Scoop it back into the bowl and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">STIR-FRY EVERYTHING TOGETHER<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>With the heat on high, add the chopped onions to the wok (there should be some oil remaining from searing the meat). Cook until translucent. If using fresh carrots, add them at the same time you add the onions. If using frozen carrots, add them after the onions turn translucent.Continue stir frying until the carrots are heated through.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the cooked brown rice. Your heat should be really high at this point to prevent sticking. Use your metal\u00a0wok spatula\u00a0to stir-fry the rice, scraping from the bottom of the wok to prevent sticking. This is an essential technique for fried rice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once the brown rice is warmed (after 1 to 2 minutes of stir-frying), pour the prepared sauce evenly over the rice. Stir fry for another 1-2 minutes to evenly distribute the sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add in the seared meat. Spread 1 tablespoon of Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok, and give everything a quick stir.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Next, stir in the scrambled eggs. Then, stir in the frozen peas until heated through. Toss in the chopped scallions and stir fry for another 15 seconds. Use a clean spoon to taste the rice, and re-season with more soy sauce or salt if needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Plate and serve immediately.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INGREDIENTS INSTRUCTIONS STEAM THE BROWN RICE MARINATE THE MEAT PREPARE SAUCE SCRAMBLE EGGS SEAR MEAT STIR-FRY EVERYTHING TOGETHER<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6742,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[254],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brown-rice"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/FRIED-BROWN-RICE.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6741"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6743,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6741\/revisions\/6743"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/saad.appscodestudio.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
