Ingredients
-
3 tablespoons Toasted sesame oil
-
1 pack Tempeh
-
2 cups Mangetout
-
1 Carrot
-
Sweet bell peppers
-
1 stalk Celery
-
2 cups cooked Basmati rice
-
1/4 cup Soy sauce
-
1/4 cup Parsley
-
1/2 cup Rice flour
Directions
Chinese fried rice is the perfect dish that you can put together when you have rice leftovers. Here, we omitted the egg, and we added tempeh as a source of protein. If you’re lucky enough to live in a place with Just Egg, you can add it scrambles to the mix. The result will be spectacular!
To prepare it, start with finely dicing all the vegetables and the tempeh. Then, toss the tempeh in a bowl of rice flour and mix to evenly coat all the pieces. Heat the oil in a skillet and cook the vegetables for 3-4 minutes. Transfer them to a bowl and, by using the same skillet, add some oil and stir-fry the tempeh (it should take just a couple of minutes). When it’s golden, transfer the tempeh to a separate bowl. Use the same skillet to fry the leftover rice. Add the soy sauce and cook for a couple of minutes.
Finally, add the vegetables and tempeh to the skillet and finish the cooking for another couple of minutes. Take off the heat, stir in the fresh parsley and serve.
Enjoy!

Slice and diceRinse well all the vegetables. Slice the mangetout into 3-4 pieces, quarter, core, and dice the red pepper, peel and thinly dice the carrot, and thinly dice the celery. If you're using frozen celery (like us), you can put it in the mixer frozen. Finally, slice and dice the tempeh. Put the rice flour in a bowl and toss in the tempeh. Mix well to evenly coat each tempeh piece and set aside. |
