American Lite Fried Rice

Directions

Ingredients :

1 cup dry jasmine rice

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 cloves garlic

chopped

2 cups broccoli florets

1 cup cauliflower florets

5 green onions

chopped

1 (10 ounce) package shredded carrots

3 cups shredded cabbage

1 (8 ounce) can water chestnuts

drained

¼ cup soy sauce

or to taste

¼ cup water as needed

1 tablespoon chili sauce

Methods :

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Stir in rice. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic and rice in oil for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently to avoid burning the garlic. Add broccoli and cauliflower florets and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes. Toss green onions, carrots, cabbage, and water chestnuts into the pan, and cook another 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Add additional water as needed to keep vegetables moist. Drizzle with soy sauce, and toss to coat.
