Fried Rice is my specialty. My fried rice is good (it's the healthier version of Benihana's fried rice hehe)! I love good food. It must be a surprise to those who know me that I've become a vegetarian. Saying I love to eat and saying that I love being a vegetarian must sound kinda contradictory to most people because in many ways these 2 statements are kinda the antithesis of each other, especially to all those non-vegetarians. One must think that the love of eating good food means eating/trying everything and everything encompasses food with meat in it. I would like to delve deeply into how there is a variety of vegetarian dishes but that'll be another day. And I would also like to share how being a vegetarian has open up my taste buds, but that'll have be on another day as well. Today, it's about my fried rice!
So, I learned to make fried rice from Benihana (I'm not kidding)! You can learn a lot from watching someone cook. A little over 10 years ago, I was introduced to Benihana's style of fried rice. I was obsessed with making my fried rice just like theirs (minus all the gimmicks and tricks of course - i won't be tossing stuff into my hat or throwing the bowl of rice up and stuff like that). Over the years, I've improved on it and made it healthier. And now, I, yup, you guessed it, I made it vegan (even healthier, although I must add that it now no longer resembles Benihana's)! And to my surprise, I like it even better than when I used eggs, and chicken/shrimp. Click here for the unbenihana vegan fried rice recipe! If you want the meat version, email me.
