Nasi goreng (Indonesian stir-fried rice)

I made this dish today on Cookpad today via Facebook. I love stir fry rice and this is a really popular Indonesian dish.

Ingredient

Food ration :

2 servings

1/2

small white onion or shallot, diced

vegetable oil (or any cooking oil of preference)

1 teaspoon

cooked rice (chilled from the fridge)

1/4 cup

sweet soya sauce (ketchup manis)

1 tablespoon

spring onion, chopped (optional)

1/2

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Transfer the refrigerator rice into a mixing bowl, break to the rice grains and set side.

* Step 2

Using a mortar and pestle or a mini food processor, add onion or shallot, garlic, red or green chillis and blend into a paste. Transfer the blended paste into a small bowl.

* Step 3

In a wok on medium heat, add cooking oil. Add the blended paste and shrimp paste, fry until aromatic or when the oil separates.

* Step 4

Then add rice to the wok and stir continuously to coat the rice with the spices. Add the peas and stir to fully mix into the rice. Once well mixed in, add the sweet soya sauce and incorporate well into the rice.

* Step 5

Once rice is fully coated, season with light soya sauce, sugar (optional), ground white pepper, salt (optional) and sesame oil (optional). Taste and adjust as necessary (add more sweet soya sauce, white pepper, sugar etc).

* Step 6

Turn heat to low, in the meantime time to fry the egg. In a small pan on high heat add cooking oil. Let the oil heat up and once hot, then add the egg. Fry egg to preference (I like my egg yolk quite runny).

* Step 7

Once ready to plate up, transfer rice into a serving plate or bowl, add the fried egg on top or on the side and garnish with chopped spring onions (optional). If you have cucumber (optional) add a few slices on the side and lime wedges.
