Vegan Fried Rice Cooking Instructions
Instructions:
- First, cook the rice according to package instructions. You will need 3 cups of cooked white rice total. You may use short grain/sushi rice for this recipe, but any rice works. If using short grain/sushi rice it is 1 ½ cups of uncooked rice & 2 cups water needed for this amount of cooked rice.
- The rice can also be made the day before and is actually better if cold and refrigerated!
- Once the rice is has been cooked, prep the rest of the ingredients.
- First, chop all the vegetables including the carrots and onions and set aside the peas and edamame. Then, whisk together the soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and sugar to form a thin sauce.
- Next, add the vegan butter to a wok and turn on the heat.
- Once the butter has melted and the wok is hot, add in the onion and cook for 2 minutes on high heat until translucent.
- Then, add in the rest of the vegetables (edamame, peas, carrots), and cook another 2 minutes.
- Next, add in the stir fry sauce and cooked white rice and stir fry for another 2-3 minutes .
- Make sure to stir to evenly mix in the sauce and break up any rice clumps that may form.
- Remove the fried rice from the heat and serve immediately. Top with furikake seasoning or sliced green onions for extra flavor. Enjoy!
