Pork Fried Rice
Easy to make Pork Fried Rice, perfect for a crowd or just one. The best take out, home style!
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork Tenderloin sliced into 1/2 inch, bite size pieces
- 2 Tbsp Hoisin Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Honey
- 2 Tbsp Soy Sauce
- ½ tsp Chinese Five-Spice powder
- 2 Tbsp + 1 tsp Sesame Oil
- 1 small or 1/2 medium Onion diced fine
- 4 Garlic Cloves minced
- 1 medium Carrot diced fine
- 3 ½ - 4 cups White Rice cooked
- 4 Eggs lightly beaten
- ½ cup Peas frozen or fresh
To Garnish:
- Chives
- Spring Onions sliced
- Red Chili Peppers sliced
- Crushed Red Chili Flakes
- Soy Sauce
- Hot Sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the pieces of Pork Loin with the Hoisin Sauce, Honey, Soy Sauce and Chinese Five Spice powder and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Prepare the Rice according to directions (I like to use Jasmine Rice)
- In a large skillet or wok over medium high, heat 2 Tbsp of the Sesame Oil until its hot. Add in the Onions and Garlic, giving it a stir, then add in the marinated Pork pieces (reserve any marinade), and cook, stirring until the meat starts to brown, about 5 - 8 minutes.
- Add in the Carrots, the cooked Rice and any remaining reserved marinade, stirring well to incorporate, just a couple of minutes.
- You can either scramble the Eggs in a separate non-stick skillet then add to the mixture or I prefer to make a "well" in the center of the wok, and scramble the Eggs. Once they are scrambled, incorporate into the rest of the rice mixture and add the remaining teaspoon of Sesame Oil, mixing well.
To Serve:
- Garnish with any or all of the following: Chives, Spring Onions, Chili slices, Crushed Chili Flakes, and/or any sauces you like.
Enjoy!
Notes
You can easily double this recipe, just make sure that your wok is large enough to hold all of the ingredients. Not a Pork fan, just half the amount of marinade required and then add it in when adding in the rice and continue to cook from there. It's what seriously adds flavor to this dish.
