Fried brown rice with fresh shiitake and mushrooms | Quick and easy meals

Fried brown rice with white mushrooms and fresh shiitake is quick and easy to make! You can add anything in this rice dish. I chose 2 types of mushrooms: fresh shiitake and white mushrooms . They are packed with vitamins and minerals. Excellent dish to start if you want to start eating less meat. This dish is tasty with or without meat. I made a vegetarian version, but it is also very tasty with small pieces of meat. I would recommend the following ratio: 10% meat, 40% vegetables and 50% rice.

Ingredients

  • 170 gram brown rice (uncooked) 
  • 1 spring onion
  • 1 egg
  • 50 gram mushrooms or as much as you like
  • 50 gram fresh shiitake or as much as you like
  • 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
  • Oil for cooking
  • Sesame seeds  (optional)

Directions

  1. Cook the brown rice according to the packaging and let it cool down.
  2. Clean the spring onion thoroughly and slice it as thin as possible (rings). Clean the white mushrooms and shiitake and cut these in pieces. Whisk the egg in a small bowl.
  3. Heat a wok over medium high heat and heat up the oil. Once hot add the egg and wait until the bottom is cooked. The top can be still a bit watery. Add the spring onion, shiitake and mushrooms. Stir-fry for about 3 minutes.
  4. Add the cooked brown rice in the wok and mix all the ingredients with soy sauce. Stir-fry for another 3 minutes.
  5. Serve in a bowl with a little sesame seeds (optional).
