Bacon Fried Rice Recipe

INGREDIENTS

2 cups of Jasmine, or long grain rice
2 cups of water
5 slices of Nueske’s Bacon, diced
2 tbsp butter
2 whole carrots, diced
1 large shallot, diced
5 cloves garlic, minced
3 whole eggs, beaten
1 tbsp Red Boat Fish Sauce or Three Crabs Fish Sauce
1/2 tbsp cracked black pepper
1/4 cup of soy sauce
1/2 cup of frozen peas
1 tbsp chili oil, optional
Additional water

DIRECTIONS

1. Start by making your rice. 
2. Make sure the rice gets dry. Remove the cooked rice onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, fanning it out, and letting it sit on the counter for several hours. Otherwise, let the rice cool, store in the refrigerator and use the following day.
3. Make sure you have prepared the remaining ingredients.
4. Heat a large wok on medium heat. Add in the diced bacon, and cooked until slightly crisp. Keep the bacon fat in the wok, along with the bacon. Next toss in the garlic and shallot and cook for about 40 seconds or so. Add in about two tablespoons of butter and your chili oil. Stir, then toss in the carrots.  Add in about 2 tablespoons of water. Stir.
