'Semi-Homemade w/ Boyhowdy' - Episode #4

What to do with leftover steamed rice? Like most Chinese restaurants, why not fry it up & make a meal! Here's what you need:
Rice, of course (this is just a simple long grain that I steamed up the day before)
Two strips of bacon, cut
About 1/3 of an onion, chopped,
One clove of garlic, minced
Shrimp
Soy sauce
Oyster sauce
Black Pepper

Fry up the bacon and drain most of the fat.

Add onions and garlic. Sautee, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Add shrimp. Continue to sautee ingredients until shrimp is cooked through, but not overdone.

Stir in the rice. The grains should seperate a little bit and not be so clumpy.

Collect on one side of the pan, then drizzle oyster sauce & soy sauce. Add black pepper to taste. Turn off heat & sautee a little more to distribute the seasoning.

Fin! Of course, you can add just about anything to it - frozen peas, carrots, chopped ham or chicken, scrambled eggs, etc.. Anything goes when it comes to fried rice!
