Step 1

First cook some rice. Either white or brown. Set aside for later. You can also use leftover rice from the night before or cook it way ahead. I cook 1 cup of uncooked rice to 2 cups of water for this recipe.

Step 2

In a deep saute pan I first cut up about 6 slices of bacon and fry in sesame oil until almost done. I then add the diced onion, carrot and celery. Saute until onions, carrots and celery are well cooked.

Step 3

In a small bowl scramble 2 eggs. I push the cooked vegetables to one side of the pan and pour the eggs in and scramble.

Step 4

Next add your cooked rice. Mix well. Add the following spices:garlic powder, sugar, ginger powder, red pepper and soy sauce

Step 5

Optional: diced meat or shrimp if making this as a main dish. Chicken, pork, beef or shrimp. Or a mix of whatever leftovers on hand.

Step 6

Mix everything well and then add about a cup of frozen peas. 2 cups of shredded cabbage and 2 green onions diced. Cover and steam on low until cabbage and peas are cooked, about 10 minutes. You can keep this on low on your stove until ready to serve.

Step 7

Note: you can cook this ahead of time and keep on low while finishing other dishes.
