Clean-Up-Fridge Fried Rice

You can put whatever you can find in your fridge, and just fry them and season it with salt and pepper and soy sauce, and if you like it spicy,  put some chili garlic sauce. I thought about writing a recipe about this dish, but there is no point to write the recipe since you can use different kinds of vegetables every time you make this.
But there are some ingredients you can’t make without.

  • Cooked rice- Left over rice is fine. But if it’s frozen or in a fridge, warm it up by a microwave before cooking.
  • Oil
  • Onion
  • Garlic
  • Salt and pepper

This time, I used broccoli (green part and chopped core), sliced lotus root, red bell pepper and thin sliced pork. Start frying with onion, then put something that takes longer time to be cooked first. This time I started with onion, then chopped pork, broccoli core, lotus root and red bell pepper, then garlic, then green part of broccoli. Finally, I put some warm rice and seasoned it with salt and pepper, soy sauce and chili garlic sauce
. It was tasty, and my fridge was cleaned up! So satisfying.

    I do the same thing! It works great. I also like to use frozen corn, frozen peas, frozen carrots, tofu, egg (slightly scrambled and fried), shrimp, lettuce, whatever I have around just like you. I like to add some ginger powder too for a little extra depth. And the leftovers make a great lunch (easy to heat up and easy to transport). I love this post, so useful!

    I never used ginger powder. That sounds great. I will try that next time!
