Recipe - Chao Fan (Fried Rice)

4 cup Cooked rice

meat and vegetables

Here's the fried rice recipe that I always useit's from the Encyclopedia
under Chinese Cookery.

It is difficult to give exact ingredients and quantities becasue Fried Rice
is a versatile dish and an excellent way to use leftovers. Cooked meat and
vegetables are combined with cooked rice, beaten eggs (sometimes the eggs
are cooked first in a thin sheet and shredded), and seasonings, and
stirfried until thoroughly heated. For 4 cups cooked rice you will need 2
eggs, 1 cup each of shredded or minced meat and vegetables, and One fourth cup
minced green onion. Pork, ham, chicken, beef, crabmeat, shrimps, or lobster
can be used. Two or more vegetables can be combined to make the cup
neededmushrooms, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, or peas.
Season with 2 tblesp. soy sauce and One half tsp. sugar. Makes 4 servings.
NOTE: For best results, start with wellchilled cooked rice.
