Nashi Golen- Fried Rice/ Nasi Goreng

Back in 2003 when I started living in Australia, Japanese food wasn't so popular. There were no Ramen shops or Izakaya pubs. There were a few fancy Japanese restaurants, but they were pricy for a student.

Finding Japanese ingredients was challenging!

I remember eating lots of Indonesian, Vietnamese and Chinese food.

Nasi Goreng just brings me back to fun days. 


Ready in: 15 minutes

Ingredients for two:
2-3 cups of cooked rice
Vegetables in your fridge, i.e. spinach, mushrooms, carrots, onions, bean sprout, cabbage, and/or lettuce
A few slices of tomatoes
A few slices of cucumbers
Coriander
1 garlic clove, minced
2 eggs
Shrimp and/or chicken, optional
Frying oil
[Prepare sauce in a cup]
2 tablespoons of Asian sweet&chili sauce
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of nam pla fish sauce
1 tablespoon of oyster sauce


Step 1: Make egg sunny side-up, and put it aside. I prefer a running egg! 

Step 2: Heat up a pan, and fry garlic first. Cook vegetables after.

Step 3: Add rice into the pan.

Step 4: Add sauce into the pan, and mix well.

Step 5: Voilà!
