Hello,
In Asia, when we think of breakfast, fried rice is one of the dish that we served in the morning. Just like fried noodles, fried rice also is an all time favourite for many people. There are many varieties of fried rice and this village style fried rice or what we called 'nasi goreng kampung' cooked with fried anchovies, long bean and water spinach as a main ingredients. All those ingredients are easy to find when we live in the village and I suppose that's where the name come from.
The only one ingredient I don't have is water spinach, it's almost impossible to find water spinach in our place unless in the Asian grocery store, so far away from home.
VILLAGE STYLE FRIED RICE
Ingredients;
2 cups cooked rice
2 cloves garlic
1 shallot
2-3 small red chili
1/2 cup chopped long beans/french beans
1/2 cup anchovies
A handful water spinach
Salt and pepper to taste
METHOD;
- Heat some oil in a wok or frying pan, fry anchovies until crispy. Set aside.
- Blend or pound garlic, shallot and chilies to a coarse paste.
- Heat little oil and fry garlic chili paste until fragrant.
- Add the long beans and fry for a few second.
- Add in rice and water spinach, stir fry until the rice is heated through and well coated.
- Add fried anchovies and season with salt and pepper.
Bon appétit!
