Listen, I'm gonna be here the next couple of months. Chop it out press down like
that. I haven't got a clue what I'm supposed to be doing. We need to get our stuff on. That is what
I'm talking about. Twist like that. Give it a ruddy good
spanking. Perfect. Just having a moment
Egg fried rice, it's an absolute classic and I've got a recipe for you that is so
consistent and delicious, quick and easy. So it starts with a big pan, on a high
heat and I've got six beautiful spring onions here that I'm gonna finely slice
I absolutely love making this recipe, yes you can do this as a side dish, no
trouble at all but actually it's heading towards being a really beautiful dinner
So finely slice this up and as this pan gets nice and hot, I'm gonna go in with
one tablespoon of olive oil and I'm gonna go straight in with the onions and
we'll get them sizzling straight away and then I've got some packet precooked
rice, yes you can cook your own rice, white rice, 12 minutes but for stir-fried
rice, you have to drain it and chill it, you cannot stir-fry hot rice. This
precooked shortcut will stop your egg fried rice going sticky. So for me that
feels like a good cheat, you can hear its sizzling, you know we're sort of jiggling
it around. So it's fast, it's hot, it's furious, we're just gonna toss it around
Right, the next ingredient, I have this in my home all the time now, chilli jam, it's
brilliant for cooking. It's got heat, but it's also got the sweetness and it's
gonna kind of glaze and help you balance flavours. So two nice teaspoons go
in to our pan and then just start tossing again and immediately that'll
start to coat every single rice grain and it will shine in the most beautiful
way and then just give it a little splash of water, just to kind of help
plump up that lovely rice. At this stage, just push the rice up the
side of the pan, like that and then straight into the middle, we're gonna
crack in two beautiful, free-range eggs. I
just want to have it they're like a fried egg and then just break it and
have it marbled. So we're really celebrating the egg whites and the egg
yolks and then it's time for the last ingredient, which again to a lot of
people is a bit of a new ingredient, tofu, firm, silken tofu. It's protein basically
it's made out of soya beans, it's extremely healthy. Now let me just show
you what's in here, what you end up with is like a little slab of tofu, we just
need half of that about 150 grams and what you can do is just break this up
and then as that cooks, then we can start just bringing the rice back in but I
want chunks of tofu and I want little bits and I want chunks of it and I want
little bits. So the nice thing about this stir-fried rice is it's kind of random
Season with a little salt, give it a little toss to mix it all up and then
we're ready to serve. Get a bowl, put a little oil around the
bowl, give it a rub, we're gonna make sandcastles basically but we're gonna
make it with stir-fried rice. Just pour your rice in here, stir-fried rice dishes
and that kind of Street food which is beautiful, it's often associate with
being unhealthy, this has been made to be healthy. So push
it down and then we're ready to turn it out. Let me just get our plate, put it on
top, apply a little bit of pressure, turn it up, I just kind of like it. So there you
go, fantastic stir-fried rice for two people
and you could have that as a side, you could have that as a meal, I think it's
the time to have a little taste up and like every good sand castle, at some
point, someone has to come and destroy it, in this case me and I love that kind
of whole court egg, but then the fluffy juicy rice on the inside, really
beautiful. There's heat there, the onions have still got a nice little crunch and
the tofu is so silky and delicious, looks fantastic
and it's really good fun to make
