Kitten’s Chinese Fried Rice With Egg
The best fried rice you will ever have, it’s even better than any Chinese restaurant, the secret is the garlic and sesame oil… you will love this!
Chopped cooked shrimp or strips of cooked chicken, beef or pork may be added in also, thawed frozen peas may be added in also, or be creative and use whatever is in your fridge!
The amount of egg doesn’t matter you can use more if desired I always use more that three, if you like some heat add in cayenne pepper, make certain to use only cold rice for this and for the best results the rice should be cooked to slightly firm and not mushy
Servings 4-6
INGREDIENTS:
3 eggs (or use as many as desired)
1 tablespoon cold water
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, coarsely chopped (or use as much as you like, do not finely mince)
4 cups cold cooked white rice
4 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
freshly ground black pepper
3 green onions, chopped (can use more)
INSTRUCTIONS:—————————————————–
In a small bowl whisk the eggs with water.
Melt the butter in a wok or large skillet over medium heat until sizzling.
Add in eggs and leave flat for about 2 minutes or until cooked through (cooking time may take more depending on how may eggs that you use) remove to a plate and coarsely chop.
Heat vegetable oil in the same wok or skillet over medium-high heat; add in onion and saute until softened (about 3-4 minutes) add in garlic, cook stirring about 1-2 minutes.
Add in the cold cooked rice; toss to coat with the onions/garlic, then add in the soy sauce (starting with 4 tablespoons) and sesame oil; stir-fry/tossing continuously for about 5 minutes or until combined and hot, adding in more soy sauce until you achieve desired flavor that you want, you may be fine with just the 4 tablespoons.
Season with black pepper to taste.
Stir in the chopped egg and green onions.

Thank you for giving such wonderful detailed, directions! I’ve never been quite able to get the eggs cooked just right before – until last night. I stir-fried some thinly sliced chicken breasts and combined with the fried rice. The garlic adds a bit of complexity to the flavor. Using the low-sodium soy makes a big difference, as well. I had a much easier time adjusting the soy flavor. Served with fried crab rangoons, and we were in heaven.
Love this recipe. I have tried dozens, but all seem too dry and flavorless. My family loves this. Wonderful flavor! Thank you.
