Indonesian Fried Rice: Nasi Goreng
When you need a quick tasty and healthy meal, curry pastes are great, I found this one in world market now I need to read up on Indonesian food and make it from scratch the ingredients are shallots, garlic, tomato paste and chili's. Stores like World Market and foreign grocery stores are a great introduction to new cuisines and put you on the search for more!
So first you make an omelette I added chilli's to mine!, cut into thin strips and keep it aside.
Then you fry onions in canola oil, scrimp with 4 tablespoons of the paste, green pepper, snow peas, peas or any veggies then slowly add cooked rice. I use a rice cooker, so all in all this meal is so easy, great for when you are short of time,
Enjoy
Much Love Rebecca
That looks great!! I've never seen those pastes but now i'm definitely going to look!!
ReplyDeleteI just bought a red curry paste the other day, but haven't had a chance to use it yet...hmmm.

I have never cooked with curry pastes before, but now I want to try.
ReplyDeleteSarah: they are great, also sold in Asian Stores
ReplyDeleteGirlichef: oh very easy to use, just mix with coconut milk and add to sauteed veg and meat, I like green the best- also easy to make from scratch
Gera: thanks
Sweta: it was very nice, the tomato paste gave different flavour

I haven't cooked with curry pastes before but you have me so intrigued. This looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThis dish looks wonderful. I have been wanting to experiment with pastes more. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI have some red curry paste that's been sitting in my fridge since I used it in one recipe - this fried rice would be perfect to make!
ReplyDeleteThis looks very quick and tasty. I sometimes make my own green curry paste and freeze it in ice cube trays. The I pop them in a resealable bag in the freezer and I have it right there and waiting when I fancy a curry hit.
ReplyDeleteLove fried rice; will have to try this. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Looks like you have your hands full with all the joys of life. I like that you call you daughter the sunshine of your life. I've always referred to my daughter as the joy of my life and my son the light of my life. I enjoyed reading your blog. I'll be stopping back by again.
ReplyDeleteBridgett: and so easy

I do not eat or make cuisine like this enough, and love it. Yours looks and sounds great!
ReplyDeleteLove this! It is such a simple dish and yet so complete and satisfying. As for pastes - curries and chilis - I'm definitely in the throes of experimentation. They are fantastic and easy ways to add complex flavors to just about any dish.
