Veggie Fried Rice

A Simple Midweek Favourite

This Veggie Fried Rice is a quick and versatile dish that makes dinner time stress-free. It is full of colour and flavour, using everyday ingredients you likely already have on hand. Perfect for busy evenings, it is a satisfying way to enjoy a nourishing, veggie-packed meal the whole family will love.

Easy Steps to Cook Your Rice

1. Heat coconut oil in a large fry pan or wok.

2. Add garlic and onion, cooking until soft and fragrant.

3. Stir through the vegetables, starting with the ones that take longer to cook. Add the quicker-cooking ones last.

4. Mix in the rice and combine well.

5. Pour over tamari, tomato sauce, sesame oil, and ketchup manis. Stir until everything is coated evenly.

6. Serve warm, topped with fresh bean shoots and coriander for crunch and freshness.

Tip: If you’d like to boost the protein, try adding egg. Simply cook a quick omelette, slice it into strips, and stir it through just before serving.

Why This Dish Deserves a Place at Your Table

Brown rice is a nourishing base, offering fibre that supports steady energy and a sense of fullness. Vegetables such as capsicum, carrot, and cabbage bring natural colour and crunch while adding a variety of vitamins and minerals. Together, they make this a wholesome yet easy option for those nights when you want something both fast and nourishing.
