How to Make Colorful Three-Color Fried Rice
While plain fried rice is delicious, separating ingredients by color and frying them individually allows you to savor the original taste of each component. It also makes the dish visually appealing and fun, especially for children. Create a special meal with this simple yet impressive three-color fried rice!
Main Ingredients- 2 bowls of cooked rice
- 1/2 block of ham (diced small)
- 1 egg
- Pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp Cheongju (rice wine, for egg mixture)
- 2 Tbsp cooking oil
Beef Fried Rice Seasoning- 100g minced beef
- 1 Tbsp Cheongju (rice wine)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- 100g minced beef
- 1 Tbsp Cheongju (rice wine)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the seasoning for the beef fried rice. In a bowl, place 100g of minced beef. Add 1 Tbsp of Cheongju, 1 tsp of sesame oil, 1/2 tsp of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Mix well with your hands and let it marinate for a short while. This step helps to remove any gamey smell from the beef and enhances its flavor.
Step 2
Next, we’ll make the egg mixture. In a small bowl, crack 1 egg. Add 1 Tbsp of Cheongju and a pinch of salt. Whisk thoroughly until the chalaza (egg white string) is removed and the mixture is smooth. Adding Cheongju will make the cooked egg softer and more savory.
Step 3
Now, let’s heat up the pan to start the fried rice. Heat 1 Tbsp of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Pour in the whisked egg mixture. Stir with chopsticks to cook it into fluffy scrambled eggs. Be careful not to overcook, as it can become dry.
Step 4
Move the cooked scrambled eggs to the side of the pan, or transfer them to a separate plate for a moment. Add 2 bowls of cooked rice to the pan and gently mix it with the scrambled eggs. This way, the savory flavor of the egg will permeate each grain of rice, making it even more delicious.
Step 5
Now it’s time to make the ham fried rice. In a clean pan, heat the remaining 1 Tbsp of cooking oil over medium-low heat. Add the diced ham and stir-fry until it’s lightly golden brown. The ham will release some of its oil and a wonderful aroma will rise.
Step 6
Once the ham is nicely fried, add the rice to the pan. Stir-fry the rice and ham together, ensuring everything is well combined. Continue to cook until the rice grains are separate and fluffy and the ham’s flavor has infused the rice. Your delicious ham fried rice is now ready!
Step 7
Finally, we’ll make the beef fried rice. In a clean pan, lightly coat with oil. Add the marinated minced beef and stir-fry. Break up any clumps of beef and cook until it’s completely browned and cooked through. Once the beef is cooked, add rice and stir-fry everything together until well combined. Your flavorful beef fried rice is complete! When you plate these separately cooked rice portions, you’ll have a beautifully colorful three-color fried rice.
