Description

Easy to prepare, Cantonese rice is an ethnic dish that has now become part of our daily cooking routine. Among the ideas for using leftover rice, Cantonese rice is perfect!

Be careful, however, not to confuse it with risotto. Cantonese rice has well-separated grains, unlike our more traditional risotto which, if well made, is creamy and enveloping (discover here how to cream a risotto to perfection).

Cantonese rice is a perfect one-dish meal, but you can also use it to accompany lemon chicken or almond chicken. Here's how to prepare it!

Procedure

First of all, wash the rice well to remove the starch, then immerse it in cold water (the water level should cover the rice by a couple of centimeters). Cover and turn on the heat: when the water comes to a boil, complete the cooking for about 15/20 minutes. Drain the rice and set it aside, seasoning it with a little extra virgin olive oil.

Cut the Baked Chicken Breast Trancetto into regular cubes, crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them, then blanch the peas in boiling water for a couple of minutes. At this point, heat a drizzle of oil in a non-stick pan, add the egg mixture and scramble them with chopsticks to get common scrambled eggs. Now take the wok, heat another drizzle of oil and add all the ingredients except the rice, after a few minutes set them aside and in the same wok pot add a little more oil, the rice and the soy sauce.

Sauté the rice for 2-3 minutes, add the other ingredients and mix well.
