How to Make Healthy Fried Rice
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil (vegetable, canola, or coconut) in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened and lightly browned.
- Remove the mushrooms from the pan and set aside.
- Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan. Add 2 cups of cooked brown rice (day-old is ideal).
- Crack 2 large eggs into the pan and quickly scramble them, mixing well with the rice until every grain is lightly coated.
- Cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice is heated through and slightly crispy.
- Add the cooked mushrooms and 1 cup of mixed vegetables (broccoli florets, carrots, peas, etc.) to the pan. Stir until the vegetables are heated through and well combined with the rice.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce (or to taste), and a sprinkle of sesame oil (optional).
- Serve immediately and garnish with chopped green onions (optional).
