Day-old rice is drier and makes for the best fried rice. Simply boil the white rice for this recipe the night before and refrigerate it. If you're not planning ahead, then you can boil the rice just before making this recipe. Just spread the hot cooked rice on a baking sheet to cool (about 10 minutes) before using it. You can also substitute a chopped small onion for the scallions, if scallions aren’t a staple in your pantry. And for some extra flavor, add a tablespoon or two of chopped fresh cilantro or basil at the last minute right before serving.

Instructions

1

Scrape away and discard the topping from the pork. Cut the pork into thin strips; set aside.

2

Heat the sesame oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallions, celery, and ginger. Stir-fry until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the pork strips, peas and carrots, rice, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and crushed red pepper. Stir-fry until heated through, about 3 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a warm serving bowl.

Spray the same skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the egg substitute and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until scrambled and cooked through, about 1 minute. Stir the egg into the rice mixture and serve at once. Yields 1 3/4 cups per serving.
