Instructions
You'll Need Rice:
- Cook 2 cups of dry rice according to the instructions on the package, which should yield about 4 cooked cups. Chill, ideally overnight. (Or use 4 cups leftover rice.)Or, use the quick-dry method: spread freshly cooked rice on a sheet pan and pop it in the oven at 325 F for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool.
To Make the Fried Rice:
- In a large skillet, heat ¼ cup peanut oil over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp and brown. With a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels and salt lightly.
- In the same pan, reduce heat to medium-low and add the THC-infused peanut oil and 2 teaspoons sesame oil and shallots. Cook about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the shallots are very tender but not browned.
- Season lightly with salt. Raise heat to medium and add rice. Cook, stirring well, until heated through. Season to taste with tamari soy sauce. Ready to serve!
Optional Egg:
- If you are really going in for a full meal, in a nonstick pan fry an egg in a little butter or oil, sunny-side-up, until edges are set but yolk is still runny.
To Serve:
- Over your pile of rice, top with your egg (if using) and sprinkle with crisped garlic and ginger, and maybe a few coconut chips and some Siracha. Serve warm. Eat it all.
