Pork Fried Rice Serves 2
3/4 cup uncoooked long-grain white rice or 2 1/4 cups cooked rice 4 teaspoons canola oil 1 egg 1 medium yellow onion, sliced 4 medium garlic cloves, crushed 2 cups frozen petite pois (I use Le Seur brand) 8 ounces roast pork cut into 1/4-inch cubes 4 cups sliced Napa cabbage (I use shredded cabbage from the bags sold at Sams) 2 teaspoons sugar Salt and freshly ground pepper 2 tablespoons low-salt soy sauce 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce 6 scallions, sliced (Sometimes I add small cooked shrimps)
Bring a large pot with 2 to 3 quarts of water to a boil. Place rice in a strainer and run cold water through to wash it. Add rice and boil, uncovered, 10 minutes. Test a grain. Rice should be cooked through, but not soft. Drain into a colander in the sink. Run cold water through rice and stir with a fork. Toss with 1 teaspoon oil. Add 3 teaspoons oil to wok and heat on high. When oil is smoking, add egg and scramble well. Immediately add rice and onion. Toss for 2 minutes. Add garlic, peas and pork. Toss 1 minute. Add cabbage, sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Mix soy and hoisin sauces and add to rice. Add scallions. Toss well, about 1 minute.
