CASHEWNUT FRIED RICE !!!!!!

Ingredients

• 3 cups cold cooked Rice,
• 1-1/2 cups of mixed Vegetables, see Tips
• 2-3 Spring Onions, finely sliced, greens and whites divided
• 1/2 cup Cashews, see Tips
• 2 Garlic cloves
• 1" Ginger, peeled and julienned
• 1 tsp Chilli Sesame Oil, see Tips
• 2 tbsp Soy Sauce, or to taste, see Tips
• Salt and white Pepper to taste

Method

1. To make my life easier, I used frozen combo mix of veggies. It contains carrots, beans, peas and corn. I have another packet of shelled frozen edamame that also went into this recipe for the protein factor. I steamed them for few seconds.

2. Keep everything ready before starting the wok on high heat. Once hot, add chilli sesame oil. Add the cashews to it and stir until golden. Set aside.

3. In the same wok, add the spring onion whites, celery, ginger and garlic. Stir for 6-7 seconds or until aromatic.

4. Then add the steamed vegetables along with snow peas. Stir for another 5-6 seconds.

5. Next goes the sliced mushrooms. Stir for another 10 seconds.

6. Now add the soy sauce (and/or chilli sauce if using) and cook for 10-15 seconds.

7. Add the cooled/cold rice

8. and mix to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper (or additional soy sauce/chilli oil).

9. Add the cashews

10. and mix until combined.

11. Garnish with Spring onion greens and serve hot with any accompaniment of your choice. 

HAPPY COOKING :))))))))))))
