Pork Fried Rice
Ingredients
leftover pork roast
1/3 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs, lightly beaten
1 medium-large red or white onion, finely diced
6 slices ginger, finely diced
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon malt vinegar
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
4 cups steamed rice
2/3 cup finely sliced spring onions (scallions)
fresh ground black pepper
Using a sharp knife, cut pork fillets into 1/4 inch slices, then cut into 1/4 inch strips and set aside.
Heat
half the oil in a hot wok until surface seems to shimmer slightly. Pour
beaten eggs into wok and leave to cook on the base of the wok for 10
seconds before folding egg mixture over onto itself with a spatula and
lightly scrambling for about 1 minute or until almost cooked through.
Carefully remove omelette from wok with a spatula and drain on kitchen
paper. Set aside.
Heat remaining oil in hot wok and stir-fry
onion and ginger for 30 seconds. Add sugar and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
Add pork and stir-fry for a further 30 seconds. Stir in hoisin sauce,
soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Toss in rice and reserved omelette and stir-fry, using a spatula to
break up the egg into smaller pieces, for 1 minute. Lastly, add spring
onions and stir-fry for a further 30 seconds or until well combined and
rice is heated through.
Transfer rice to a platter and serve. Adapted from Simple Chinese Cooking by Kylie Kwong.
