Fried Rice - Chinese comfort food Recipe

Add the bacon to the wok and cook for a couple of minutes, stirring, until it starts to brown. Once the bacon is browning, turn the heat up to high and add the frozen vegetables.

Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 4 minutes, until the vegetables are heated through and slightly tender-crisp.

Add the cooked rice to the wok, breaking it up with a wooden spoon as you stir. Continue cooking for a few minutes until some of the rice grains start to form a light brown crust in places.

Season with light soy sauce and a dash of dark soy sauce, starting with a little and tasting before adding more. Sprinkle with white pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly so the rice is evenly coated and colored.

Add the reserved omelette pieces and chopped spring onion to the wok. Stir everything through and let it warm for one minute.

Turn off the heat, then add a few shakes of sesame oil. Stir to combine, letting the fragrant oil coat the rice.
