INGREDIENTS

  • Rice and Base

    • 🍚 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice
    • 💧 ½ cup water

  • Aromatics

    • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • 🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
    • 🥕 2 tablespoons chopped carrot
    • 🧅 1 tablespoon chopped onion

  • Seasonings

    • 3 tablespoons soy-based liquid seasoning
    • ¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
    • 1 teaspoon raisins
    • ¼ teaspoon white sugar
    • ¼ teaspoon white pepper

  • Add-ins

    • 🧅 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
    • 1 tablespoon chopped cashews
    • 5 canned lychees, drained and quartered

STEPS

1

Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Once cooked, spread the rice into a shallow dish, and refrigerate until cold, or use 1 1/2 cups leftover cooked rice.

2

Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic and cook a few seconds until fragrant, then stir in the carrots and onion, and continue cooking until the onion begins to soften.

3

Add the cold rice, and cook and stir until hot. Pour in the soy sauce, soy seasoning, green onions, cashews, raisins, salt, and white pepper. Cook and stir until hot.

4

Stir in the quartered lychees to serve.
