Simple Lunch Idea 1: Fried Rice with sausages and broccoli

Simple Lunch Idea 1: Fried Rice with sausages and broccoli

This is one simple lunch recipe that has all the nutrients in it.

I used broccoli, eggs and sausages as I have leftover rice from last night.
You can change the recipes according to what you see in your fridge. 


Ingredients:
Broccoli – 1 (remove the skin and cut into bite size)
Eggs – 3 (put in a bowl, marinate with soy sauce, white pepper and sesame oil; all in moderation)
Cooked rice – I had about 1 big soup bowl of it
Big onion – 1 (cut into small pieces)
Garlic – 3 cloves (chopped finely)
Oil – 3 tablespoons

Marinade:
1 tbsp of soy sauce
1 tsp salt

Portion for 3 adults

Instructions:
(1)  Heat oil up in frying pan.
(2)  Fry the egg and cut up into small pieces as you fry them.
(3)  Stir fry the onions. When they are soft (not brown), add in the garlic and stir fry for 3 mins.
(4)  Add in the broccoli and fry for another 4 – 5 mins. Add the rice in with the marinade. Fry till the marinade is evenly coated on rice.
(5)  Add in the sausages and eggs.
(6)  Fry for another 6 mins.
(7)  Dish up and serve.

You can also easily transform this dish into baked rice. Continue doing the following.
(1) Place the fried rice in a baking dish.
(2) Use mushroom soup (Campbell or here in Finland, they have Knor) and spread it on top of the rice; similar to spreading jam on bread.
(3) Put a thick layer of grated cheddar cheese, mozzarella and some paramesan on top and pop it into the oven.
(4) Bake at 170 degrees celcius until the cheese turns brown.

Hope this can become a good idea for leftover fried rice.

Cheers,
Gillian
