Seafood Fried Rice with XO Sauce XO酱海鲜炒饭


Fried rice is an extremely versatile dish where you could just add any ingredients you have on hand and a great way to use leftover rice. Mix any types of meat, vegetables or seafood you could find in the fridge, stir fry with leftover rice over medium high heat and wahla, a steamy bowl of fried rice is ready in minutes!

Ingredients
3 bowls of cooked rice
200g mixed seafood
A handful of long beans, cut into 0.5cm long
5 button mushrooms, sliced
2 eggs, beaten
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 small ginger, sliced
3 tbsp XO sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
Oil for cooking


Method
Bring a pot of water to boil. Parboil the seafood mix for 3 minutes, drain and set aside.

Heat oil in wok with medium heat. Fry ginger till fragrant, add garlic and sauté for a while before adding the seafood mix. Pour in XO sauce and soy sauce. Stir fry seafood for about 2 minutes. Remove seafood and set aside, or, if your wok is big enough, just park the seafood at one side and stir fry the beans and mushroom.

Add beaten eggs to wok and scramble them. Add rice and loosen rice grains with wooden spatula. Mix seafood, beans, mushroom, egg and rice well. Dish and serve.
