Lemon & Rosemary Fried Brown Rice











I like to precook the rice for this dish so I can just quickly fry it up next day. Ensure it is piping hot though when you serve it.


Rinse 6 tbsp wholegrain brown rice in boiling water a couple of times.


Put 1 tsp rapeseed oil into a deep fry pan. Add the rice, 1 tsp lemon juice and few sprigs of rosemary. fresh ground garlic salt and black pepper, 1 diced onion and a handful of egg noodles.


Just cover with enough boiling water or veg stock if you prefer more taste. Bring it back to the boil, cover with a glass lid if possible so you can check the moisture level is okay without removing the lid, then heat to simmer for 50 minutes when the rice will absorb all the liquid and there will be a ‘popping dimpled effect in the rice’.


Rinse the rice again in boiling water.


Allow to cool then either store in the fridge overnight for cooking next day (do not store any longer than one day), or begin cooking the friend rice as follows:


Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat and press the rice down into the pan. Sprinkle on 1 tsp lemon juice and a dash of white pepper. leave and allow to cook for 3 minutes. Turn the rice over and cook another 3 minutes.


Add 3tbsp frozen gardens peas, 1 tbsp broad beans and cut green beans and a dash of light soy sauce and keep turning the rice for 2 minutes.


Crack 2 eggs into a dish and beat lightly with 1 tsp dried rosemary.


Bring the rice into the centre of the fry pan allowing an empty ring ‘space’ around it so you can pour the beaten eggs evenly around pan circling the rice using your utensil to cook the egg and when beginning to set turn the egg into the rice mixture.


Add a sprinkling of dark soy and 1 tsp runny honey into the centre of the rice to serve.
