Pepperoni Fried Rice Recipes

PEPPERONI FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and a generous pinch of salt and cook, swirling the pan, until set on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Fold the omelet over itself and cook until just golden and set, about 2 minutes more. Slide the omelet onto a cutting board, let cool slightly and then dice.
• Meanwhile, whisk the soy sauce and lime juice together in a small bowl.
• Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pepperoni and stir-fry until rendered and just starting to crisp, about 2 minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry until very fragrant and lightly browned, about 30 seconds. Add the rice and stir-fry until coated in the fat and hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the soy mixture, then fold in the eggs, cilantro and scallions. Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot with sambal oelek if using.

• Heat the oil in a medium pan with a lid, add the onion and fry for 5 minutes until softened. Tip in the sausage and sizzle for a few minutes until it's browned and a bit crispy round the edges.

• Turn the heat down until the liquid is gently bubbling, put a lid on the pan and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the peas, put the lid back on and cook for a further 5 minutes. Beat the egg with a little salt and pepper. Turn the heat up under the rice pan, drop in the egg and stir quickly until the egg has just set. Pile the steaming rice into a bowl and tuck in.
