Fried Brown Rice with Bok Choy

The question for me is always how to finish the leftovers in my refrigerator and turn them into a fantastic dish.  Healthy eating was a big part when I first decided to create this blog. Some people are too busy to cook a healthy meal because it takes time and effort to do so. However, eating healthy should always be a big part of everyone’s daily routine from a cup of Joe in the morning to a simple meal at night. Here is a recipe to do just that.

Ingredients:
3 cups cooked brown rice
2 heads bok choy

1 cup roughly chopped mushrooms (your choice)
2 eggs
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 shallots, minced
Sauce ingredients:
1 tbs blackstrap molasses
1 tbs soy sauce
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sesame oil

 Garnish with chopped cilantro

Directions
First wash and then separate the bok choy stems and leaves. Afterwards, slice them and place into a small bowl.
Beat eggs and set aside.
Combine sauce ingredients. Have all the ingredients ready to use next to the stove.
Heat 1 tbs of peanut oil in a wok.  Add shallots and garlic.  Stir until fragrant (about 1 minute). 

 Add brown rice and cook for 2 minutes. 



 Move rice off to the side of the wok. Add 1 tsp of peanut oil. Pour beaten eggs into the wok.  Cook until eggs just set.

 Scramble the eggs and move them to the side beside the rice.

 Add mushrooms and sauce. 



Cook for 1 minute.  Mix the rice, scrambled eggs, and mushrooms together.



Add sliced bok choy.  Mix them well and cook until the bok choy is tender. Serve with some cilantro.
