Gluten Free Fried Rice
A comforting and versatile gluten-free fried rice filled with savory flavors and textures, perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked gluten-free rice (preferably day-old for best results) Use rice that has been chilled overnight for the best texture.
- 2 tablespoons oil (vegetable or sesame)
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (like peas, carrots, and bell peppers) Feel free to mix in any seasonal vegetables you enjoy.
- 2 organic eggs beaten For a vegan option, omit the eggs or use a flax egg substitute.
- 2-3 green onions, chopped Garnish with a few extra green onions if desired.
- 2-3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional protein: chicken, shrimp, or tofu Add according to preference.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large skillet or wok over medium heat, add the oil. Once hot, swirl it around to coat the pan evenly.
- Add the mixed vegetables and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender and vibrant in color.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the pan and add the beaten eggs. Stir gently to scramble them and cook until just set.
- Add the cooked gluten-free rice to the pan, breaking up any clumps. Stir everything together and ensure the rice is heated through.
- Pour in the gluten-free soy sauce and mix well. Add salt, pepper, and chopped green onions to enhance the flavor.
- If you’re using a protein, carefully stir it in at this point until warmed through.
- Once everything is well combined and heated through, serve your Gluten Free Fried Rice hot.
Notes
For best texture, use day-old rice. Add ginger or garlic for more flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, or freeze for 2-3 months.
