Chinese Fried Rice


Whipped this up before the Britains Got Talent results last night. Quick, easy, cheap and delicious!

  • 1 1/2 cups brown rice
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1 pepper, chopped
  • 1 tin of chickpeas
  • 1 cup of peas
  • 4 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • sprinkle of chinese five spice
  • squirt of agave nectar
  1. Cook the rice according to instructions on the packet
  2. While the rice is cooking, chop the onion and pepper
  3. Drain the rice and rinse under a cold tap until cold.
  4. Heat the oil in a wok and fry the onion, pepper and garlic for a few minutes, until soft.
  5. Add the rice, chickpeas, peas, hoisin sauce and soy sauce. Stir and fry for 7-10 minutes.
  6. Sprinkle chinese five spice over and some agave nectar. Fry for a few more minutes and then serve.




This was a really great meal. I'm tempted to have it for both lunch and dinner today :D
