Extra Vegetable Fried Rice

Prep:20minCook:15min

Learn how to make vegetable fried rice—it's a simple and satisfying dinner! This vegetarian recipe features extra vegetables and brown rice. Recipe yields 2 large or 3 moderate servings (I think you could double it if you have a large enough skillet, but you might not get as much caramelization on the edges of the veggies and rice).

This was nice fresh but not great for meal prep

I skipped the chopping and used frozen veggies, making it fairly quick and easy.

Loved it. My wife especially liked the suggestion of chili sauce. 🙂

Spend the time chopping with this one! Delicious! Started off with onions and carrots (diced small) added zucchini, broccoli, celery, and red peppers. Stayed with brown rice and followed the rest of the recipe to a tee. Flavor galore!

Easy to make but, buyer beware, prep time assumes rice is made and veggies are prepped. With actual prep time this took closer to 90 minutes for me.

So good. The fragrance of the garlic, ginger and pepper flakes was amazing. I would have even added more red chili flakes. Lots of prep but I like the veggie forward take so this will be replacing my old fried rice recipe. I used white rice because I was out of brown. Still good

Used tofu (oven baked with cornstarch and then tossed with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and chili sauce); used chili sauce instead of red pepper flakes. Veggies used: broccoli, cabbage, red pepper, carrot, onion, edamame

Tempeh and prawns as protein

This is a very tasty meal. I only had carrots, onions, spinach and celery to add. I will adjust the ginger next time. The instructions regarding the rice is very helpful!

I used kale, green beans, and carrots and added the kale at the end when it says to add greens. I used ginger powder since I didn’t have fresh ginger

Great! I added some gochujang for some extra spice and cooked my rice with better than boullion veggie stock.

Delicious! Less onion though. 2 cups is a lot for 4 servings.

This was very tasty, didn't use the egg though and only 1 tsp of ginger as I find it too strong. I put more soy sauce in it. Leftovers will be great for tomorrow's lunch.

I used quinoa and it was my first attempt at any version of fried rice. It does cook pretty quick and I probably overcooked it but it was great anyway. I really liked this and will definitely make it again!

My family prefers basmati rice over the rice suggested in the recipe. Add a little kung pao sauce and brown sugar for more flavor!
