Chinese Fried Rice with Luncheon Meat // Yums!!!

It was the day I wanted to finish off every vegetables left in the fridge before I go to the market again to restock. There was a head of broccoli and one carrot. There was leftover rice. And I could only think of one thing to cook. A easy one, yet love by many.

Chinese fried rice!

The first thing I learned to cook from my mum besides frying an egg, cooking instant noodle and boiling rice, was fried rice. She said I could add chicken slices, pork slices, beef slices, salted fish, sausages or luncheon meat as protein. Not forgetting eggs too.

I found a can of luncheon meat, so I used luncheon meat instead.

Fairly simple to cook. Just need to prepare the ingredients before tossing everything into the wok for frying. Diced 3-5 cloves of garlic, two rose onions. Also, diced the carrots and clean and cut the broccoli. Cut the luncheon meat into cube shaped and slightly browned them in oil, all the sides, then set aside. I fried three eggs for this fried rice then set aside.

Next, in the same wok, heat up a little bit more oil to stir fry the onions and garlic till aromatic. Followed by adding the broccoli and carrots, cooked till the desired softness. I loved my vegetables softer, as soft as the rice for the best accompaniment. I found it weird to bite the soft rice yet there were harder vegetables to chew. Are you same like me?

When the vegetables were soft, the rice was added in, followed by one tablespoon of oyster sauce, two tablespoons of light soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of dark soy sauce, some salt and pepper and a dash of mushroom powder. Toss and fry the rice to blend with the seasonings.

Last step would be adding in the eggs and luncheon meat and stir fry them further until all ingredients were blended well.
There we had it, a yummy bowl of luncheon meat fried rice. I usually loved to garnish with some spring onion or crispy fried onion but I did not have it, nevertheless it was delicious without them.

A hearty meal of luncheon meat fried rice and the kids could eat a lot. I really gave thanks for providence of food in such difficult time of inflation.

Bon appetit!
