Ingredients

  • tbsp vegetable oil; peanut oil preferred 
  •  bell pepper red yellow deseeded sliced (one , one )
  • 250 crimini mushrooms (I used shiitake)
  • 250 rice long grain (not the easy-cook type)
  •  garlic clove finely chopped
  • tsp five spice powder 
  • tbsp sherry dry (optional but worth it)
  • tsp sesame oil 
  •  eggs beaten
  • bunch spring onion sliced
  • tbsp soy sauce light
  • 140 peas frozen

Equipment

  • frying pan

Directions

  1. Boil the kettle.
  2. Heat the oil in a large, deep frying pan, then add the peppers and mushrooms. Fry over a high heat for 3 mins or until starting to soften and turn golden. Turn down the heat, then stir in the rice, garlic and five-spice. Sizzle for 2 mins, then splash in the sherry, if using, and top up with 350ml hot water.
  3. Cover the pan and simmer for 15-20 mins until all of the liquid has gone and the rice is tender, stirring now and again.
  4. Add the peas for the final few mins.
  5. Heat another frying pan, add a drop of the sesame oil, then add the eggs. Swirl around the pan to make a thin omelette. Once set, turn out onto a board, roll up and shred thinly. Tip the egg and spring onions onto the rice, fluff up with a fork, season with soy sauce and sesame oil, then serve.
