Is there anyone on the planet who has NOT enjoyed Fried Rice??? Pork, shrimp, beef. We recently tried a Chinese restaurant close to home and had this delectable food...and thought that it would be even a little BETTER with peameal. The consistency of peameal lends itself...firm but tender so it doesn't dry out and oh, MAN, it goes well with scallions. So...for your enjoyment with leftover peameal, we present.....
Peameal Fried Rice
(no photo...we were too busy eating!)
(no photo...we were too busy eating!)
1/3 pound peameal, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 1/2 T. soy sauce
1 t. Asian sesame oil
3/4 c. long grain rice
3 ounces of fresh spinach
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 T. cooking oil
2 chopped scallions
In a medium bowl, mix the peameal, half of the soy sauce, 1/2 t. of sesame oil and a pinch of red pepper. Set aside. Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the rice and boil until done. Drain the rice.
Heat a large skillet over moderately high heat. Put the peameal mixture in the pan and cook until browned. Remove. Put the spinach and the rest of the soy sauce in the pan and cook until the spinach is just wilted, about 30 seconds. Remove.
Reduce the heat to moderate. Put a few drops of the sesame oil in the frying pan. Add the egg to the pan and cook until just done, about 30 seconds. Remove from the pan and cut into strips.
Heat the remaining sesame oil in the pan over moderately high heat. Add the scallions and red pepper flakes to taste. Cook, stirring for 1 minute. Add the cooked rice and heat for 3 minutes. Add the remaining soy sauce, the peameal, spinach and egg. Heat, stirring 1-2 minutes longer.
