Chinese Banquet Fried Rice
Description
This fried rice recipe starts by scrambling eggs lightly in a hot wok or pan. Chopped carrots and onions are stir-fried until just softened, followed by ham to add savory notes. Frozen peas are added next, then cooked rice, which is stir-fried to heat through and incorporate the flavors. Seasoning with salt, white pepper, and soy sauce provides a balanced seasoning.
The rice achieves a slightly crisped texture from high-heat stir-frying, with the softness of eggs and vegetables complementing it. Fresh scallions added at the end provide a mild onion flavor and freshness. This recipe reflects a straightforward approach to Chinese banquet-style fried rice suitable as a standalone meal or side dish.
