Fried rice is one of my favourite Asian dishes, and it’s so much fun to make. I find it does take time though, and I turn my kitchen upside down when I make it, but in the end it’s worth it.
This rice dish is made with scallions, mushrooms, and peppers and the two ingredient sauce is a mix of soy sauce and hoisin sauce. Enjoy!
