Fried Rice

Mr V is definitely a handy person to have in the kitchen.  His mother raised him to be able to feed himself well.  This is a most sensible skill to teach our sons!  I tend to stay out of his way if he is making food!  I think he could be likened to Chef Ramsey but without the bad language and angry outbursts (so that just leaves the efficient whirlwind part!)

Here is the fried rice he made us.

3 1/2 cups uncooked rice
4 Tbsp lamb fat
left over meat (we used roast lamb)
2 cups of mixed vegetables
2 onions
2 Tbsp tamari sauce
2 tsp curry powder
salt and pepper

1. Melt the lamb fat and put the rice into the frying pan.  Fry until the rice is very golden brown; about 5 minutes.
2. Add the left over meat and any vegetables that require longer cooking such as carrots.  Heat these through.
3. Toss the chopped onion, tamari sauce and curry powder through the rice and meat.
4. Add 7 cups of water slowly one at a time stirring constantly.
5. When the rice is cooked, add any remaining vegetables.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Serve.
