Foreign Devil Fried Rice

“My husband is Chinese and I am Western. Between the two of us we came up with this recipe for fried rice that is actually a meal in a bowl. I can do this dish in well under half an hour, and that includes all the chopping. This dish is good for colds, depression, writer's block, stubbed toes, insomnia, heartbreak, religious crises and general crankiness. It can change your life. Yum.”

Lovely! We're vegetarian (no eggs) so I made some "scrambled tofu" instead and added that. About the bean curd sticks (also called yuba), dried mushrooms etc... We can buy them in the Asian food aisle of Walmart, of all places! But maybe only here in Hawaii...?

I have always wanted to make fried rice and this was delicious. I could not find the mushrooms or preserved salted black beans but I found every thing else. Thanks for sharing.

I love to read recipes/books-yep I'm a little different! I have made many recipes from this sight and this is got to be the best written instructions and footnotes I have come across. This individual should write a cook book. Will be definitely making this in the near future, can't wait to visit Uwajimaya's in Seattle to find all the ingredients.

I really like this using the basmati rice, different but really good.

My husband and I were very excited to try this recipe, but felt it just wasn't the taste we were looking for. Good, but not great. The recipe and directions were very well written. Thing only thing we changed was the peas, we substituted edamame instead. Just not a keeper for us.

I wish there was a picture of this, I can't imagine the ingredients and how this all comes together.

I have not even made this, but I just thought the recipe description was so funny, it deserved 5 stars. :)

Seriously the best fried rice I have ever made. I added some leftover roast chicken from last night but otherwise just followed the recipe. I loved this recipe and my husband had seconds. Thanks so much for posting it.
