\"friedrice\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I had some rice left over from some takeout and decided to make fried rice. This rice had the perfect texture, and I seldom have rice hanging around, so the decision was made essentially as soon as I put two and two together.<\/p>\n

I had also cooked some bacon that day because it had stayed out of the fridge for a short enough time that I still wanted to eat it, but long enough that I wanted to cook it immediately.<\/p>\n

So, this rice began using the grease from the bacon. I added a little canola oil to it to reduce the likeliness of making a smoky mess in my kitchen, then, once the oil got hot, I threw in some coleslaw mix that I had in the fridge. Next, I added some frozen peas to the mix, then came the rice.  Here, I stirred everything together, and added some soy sauce. By this point, things were smelling good and looking done. So, I cracked an whisked an egg, then stirred it into the food until the egg was cooked through. Finally, I added about two slices of cooked bacon to the mix. I bet you can guess that the sauce on top is Sriracha.<\/p>\n

I didn’t put the Sriracha on my son’s fried rice. He enjoyed it, and took some to school in his lunch the next day. When he got home and discovered that it was all gone, he was disappointed. <\/p>\n

However, with a success like this under my belt, it’s more likely that I’ll whip up some fried rice in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
