Looking for a delicious and easy-to-make meal that packs a flavourful punch? Look no further than this irresistible Strip Steak and Veggie Fried Rice served with a perfectly fried egg!
Ingredients
4
- 2 strip steaks (about 200g each)
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (day-old rice works best)
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, bell peppers)
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying
- Optional: fresh coriander for garnish
Instructions
1
Start by marinating the strip steaks with salt, pepper, garlic, and ginger for about 10 minutes.
2
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the strip steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
3
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil and sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant.
4
Add the mixed vegetables and cook until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
5
Stir in the cooked rice, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well and cook for another 5 minutes until heated through.
6
In a separate pan, fry the eggs sunny-side up. Season with salt and pepper.
7
To serve, divide the fried rice among four plates, top with sliced strip steak, and place a fried egg on each mound of rice. Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh coriander if desired.
Kitchen Tools
- Large skillet or frying pan
- Separate pan for frying eggs
- Spatula
- Knife for slicing steak
- Chopping board
Pro Tips
For extra flavour, let the steaks marinate for longer.
Using day-old rice prevents the dish from becoming mushy and helps give it a better texture.
Feel free to swap in any vegetables you have on hand.
Troubleshooting
If the rice sticks together, add a little more oil or water while reheating.
If the egg breaks while frying, try lowering the heat and gently cooking it more slowly.
Recipe Variations
Substitute the strip steak with chicken or tofu for different protein options.
Add a spicy kick by including sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of sriracha.
Incorporate other fresh herbs like basil for a unique flavour twist.
Healthy Alternatives
Use brown rice instead of jasmine rice for added fibre.
Replace the soy sauce with low-sodium soy sauce to reduce sodium intake.
Opt for grass-fed steak for a leaner protein option.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with a side of fresh salad for added crunch.
Pair with a light cucumber salad dressed with vinegar and sesame oil.
Enjoy with a cold beverage such as iced tea.
