FRIED RICE MY WAY
I've been making fried rice like this for a million years and just realized I've never shared my recipe here. I made my fried rice to keep and be sold by the tub over lunch time, so I was very particular about how I made it. This is a scaled down amount to that which I'd make commercially. I don't much like celery or carrots in it, but would use them in rather than waste them if they were hanging around in the fridge. I don't use soy sauce in it as I find it penetrates the grains of rice and goes soggy-oyster or hoisin being thicker coat the grains, makes them go glossy and keep better. And so many cooks are so heavy handed with soy that the rice goes the ugliest shade of dark brown. Eeewwww. 2 of us just ate this for lunch; it would serve 4 as a side dish. Rice is best cooked the day before and chilled in the fridge. Overcooked, gluggy rice won't make good fried rice! This isn't authentic, but it always worked well for me.

Steps:
- Heat the oils in a wok or frying pan and add the onion, bacon and garlic clove. Cook over medium heat until the onion is really well softened and the bacon is cooked through. (About 10 minutes).
- Add the red and green capsicums, peas and corn and cook for 2 or three minutes; you want the capsicums brightly coloured and still crisp.
- Push all that to the edge and pour in the egg. Gently push the cooked egg to the outside (allowing the raw stuff to flow in to the centre) don't beat it around too much as you want it visible in the finished dish!
- When all the egg is cooked, gently mix all this together, then increase the heat and add the stock powder and rice. Get a lifter and turn the rice over (too much stirring with spoons doesn't work IMO).
- When the rice is well heated through, stir though the oyster sauce and the onion tops and serve. You can offer soy at the table if you must.

- Use the Right Rice (Almost Any Rice) Perfect fried rice is all about texture. I was looking for rice that had distinct grains, each with a slightly chewy fried exterior and a tender bite.
- Plan in Advance if You Can, But Don't Worry if You Don't. I'd always heard that fried rice is best made with day-old rice, and that fresh rice will turn to mush if you try to fry it.
- Rinse the Rice. This was an obvious one: Excess starchiness is what causes rice to clump. Nobody likes clumpy fried rice. If you are cooking your rice from raw in order to make fried rice, make sure to rinse off excess starch first.
- Break Up the Rice. If you're using rice that has had a chance to clump or go stale, break it up before it goes into the wok. This will ensure that the rice separates into individual grains without breaking or getting crushed.
- Use a Wok. While it's true that woks were not designed to be used on Western-style gas ranges, with their rings of burners, they are still far superior vessels for stir-frying than a skillet or saucepan.
- Keep Things Hot. Very Hot. Here is where I've made the most fried rice mistakes in my life: not getting the pan hot enough, and cooking too much rice at a time.
- Go Easy With the Add-Ins. Just as a plate of pasta is really about the pasta itself, not the sauce, fried rice is all about the rice. The mix-ins should all be flavor enhancers, not stars unto themselves.
- Go Easy With the Sauce. Some fried rice recipes call for massive amounts of soy sauce, oyster sauce, or hoisin sauce. This has never made much sense to me.
- Season Rice With Salt. That teaspoon of soy sauce will add some salt to the mix, but it's not enough to season the whole wok-ful. I prefer to season my rice with plain salt instead of more soy sauce, as salt will not add excess moisture, nor will it distract from other, more subtle flavors in the rice.
- How to Add an Egg. Okay, this one technically isn't a rule, but eggs are so common in fried rice that it may as well be. There are many methods of adding eggs to fried rice, but I find that the simplest is best: Push the rice aside, add a little oil to the bottom of the wok, crack an egg into it, then scramble it right in the center of the wok, using the top of your spatula to break it up into small pieces and eventually tossing them with the rice for even distribution.
