Directions
- For the Rice:
- If you are using uncooked rice, then read this point, or else you can skip it. Take a saucepan with a lid. Pour 2 Cups of water into it and then boil it. When the water is boiled, add the rice to it and keep stirring it. Stir it from the bottom of the pan and make sure that the rice is not sticking to the pan. When there is almost no water in it and the rice is also soft and moistened, cover it with a lid, lower the heat, and let it cook on low flame for 15-20 minutes.
- When the rice is fully cooked, add the rice in a large bowl and put it aside.
- For the others:
- Scramble the egg on the pan and put butter in it.
- Cut the egg into small small pieces with the spatula.
- Put the scrambled egg into the rice bowl and also add the thawed peas, carrot, and diced white onion.
- Mix all of them together until they are fully combined.
- Take another pan, add two tablespoons of butter, and melt it.
- When the butter is fully heated, add the rice mixture to it and stir-fry it for 2 minutes.
- Take a cup and add Soy Sauce and sesame oil in it.
- Add this sauce mixture over the rice that is cooking and again start stirring it.
- Cook it for 7-8 minutes.
- When it is fully cooked, add the White pepper and salt for taste.
- Garnish the fried rice with the green onion.
- Now, serve it on a large plate.
- Enjoy it alone or with any entree:)
Extra Tips For Making The Panda Express Fried Rice:
- Use the old rice like the rice you cooked last night because using old rice makes fried rice look good in texture. Also the rice is not gonna stick with the pan.
- Stir fry the rice on high flame and also before you add the rice in the pan make sure that the pan is hot. Cooking the rice on high flame makes the rice crispy, and tender and if you cook it on low flame the rice may get soggy.
- If you are not making any entree with the fried rice add some meat in the rice like chicken, or beef anything will go well.
- If you don’t like peas or carrots, you can add any of your favorite veggies to the rice.
- Use toasted sesame oil in the fried rice because it makes the texture, taste, and fragrance of the rice much much better.
- You can add another sauce that suits you well in the sauce for the fried rice.
- Generously garnish green onions on the top of the fried rice.
