The leftovers challenge part 3: Pork "Fried" Rice
/
We are in day three of our leftovers challenge and I think we are doing okay. Tomorrow I might run screaming through the cotton field if I have to look at anymore pork, but today we are plowing through. Day three- Pork Fried Rice!
This seems so first thought, and I guess it is. When my husband came home and saw what I was making he said, "I thought you should make this." Great minds think alike, and so do ours. ;) See what I did there?
This was simple, it required little time or effort and there was no actual frying involved.
Let's get started.
What you'll need:
2 -3 cups shredded pork
1/2 cup oyster sauce (this is cheap and found at most grocery stores on the exotic food aisle.)
2 cups cooked rice
1 - 16 ounce bag frozen peas (I bought mine at the Dollar Tree. Yup, we're cheap.)
2 cups chopped carrots
1/2 onion
2 greased skillets
Grease a skillet and saute your onions and carrots over a medium heat. Don't crowd the pan or it won't get done.
In a separate greased skillet add your cooked rice. We used brown. (Only $.15 a serving.) Add your oyster sauce to the rice and let and stir it all in so that the rice is thoroughly coated.
Add your pork, carrots and onions to the rice and dump in the peas. Yes, the peas will add a little bit of moisture as they thaw, this is okay.
Once everything is hot, mixed and ready serve it up!
