Does anyone know of interesting pasta or rice dishes?
fried rice you can make at home can have far more variety (and be far more delicious!) than anything you can get at a restaurant. For example, I love making fried rice for dinner by significantly increasing the amount of meat or shrimp and vegetables, so there’s proportionately less carbohydrates in the dish. In some parts of China, there’s no soy or oyster sauce used, which is great for people on low salt diets. And you can easily make fried rice vegetarian. This recipe provides loads of options. Have fun experimenting! Tip: Next time you’re serving steamed rice, make an extra large quantity and refrigerate what’s left for fried rice the next day. Recipe Makes 4-6 servings Rice Options 4 cups cooked white OR brown rice, cold or at room temperature Cooking Oil Options 6 tablespoons peanut OR vegetable oil Seasoning Options 3 green onions, sliced in 1/4-inch segments 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely minced 1 cup chopped onion 3 tablespoons soy sauce or 2 tablesp
