Cơm chiên (Vietnamese stir-fried rice)
This stir-fried rice dish, traditionally prepared with sausage, is delicious with my seitan and a great way to recycle rice leftovers!
Ingredients
Directions
Step 1
Cook rice following instructions, drain and set aside.
Step 2
While it cooks, finely chop the spring onions (setting aside the green part for later), the garlic and a small piece of ginger. Mince the chili and get rid of the seeds. Cut the seitan into cubes, and carrots in diagonal slices.
Step 3
In a large pan, sauté the white parts of the onion in the olive oil for 5 minutes on medium heat. Add garlic, ginger and chili for another minutes. Throw in the seitan and grill for about 5 minutes, adding a bit of water if necessary. Add carrots, cover in water and simmer for about 10 minutes on medium-high heat until water is evaporated.
Step 4
Reduce heat to low-medium, add in the rice, maple syrup and soy sauce, stir well, cover and heat for about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Serve in bowls with sesame seeds, the green part of the onion, fresh coriander and lime.
