Brown Butter miso Fried Rice

We are taking plain rice to the next level with the addition of miso paste. What is miso? Miso is a fermented bean paste, the miso in this dish adds a sweet umami flavor. We pair the miso with browned butter, giving the rice a lovely nutty flavor. The miso we are using comes in a paste, which is usually located in the vegetarian refrigerated area of your local grocery store. If you don’t want to chop vegetables, then feel free to use a frozen mixed medley of veggies.

Step 1

Prepare your rice. Wash the rice in cold tap water and drain. Bring 1 ½ cups rice and 1 ½ cups of water + 2 tbsp of water to a boil. Once your rice is boiling reduce the heat to low and cover. Cook the rice for 15 minutes.

Step 2

While your rice is cooking prepare your veggies. Dice the onion and carrots. Chop the garlic. Thinly slice the green onions and set aside to garnish. Heat a large pan to medium heat. Add the cooking oil to the pan and cook the onions and carrots for 5 minutes until softened.

Step 3

While the onions and carrots cook, start browning your butter in a saucepan, over medium heat. When the melted butter begins to foam and turn a caramel color your brown butter is ready. Turn off the heat and add the miso paste. Stir well to combine.

Step 4

Add your cooked rice, chopped garlic, and frozen peas to the onions and carrots. Using the back of a spoon break up the rice. Add in the miso butter, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Sauté the fried rice for 5 minutes. Add scallion and serve immediately. Enjoy!
