#52 The Case of Curry Fried Rice and Long-grain Rice

Curry Fried Rice

3 rounded teaspoons (for 3 cups) vegetable bouillon powder
1/8 cup boiling water
1 cup chopped onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chopped red pepper
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 rounded teaspoons curry powder
2 tablespoons soya sauce
2 eggs, beaten (my Simply Eggless egg style liquid equivalent is 1/2 cup for vegan option)
1 recipe Long-grain Rice (see below) (can be made ahead of time and reheated in the microwave)
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
salt

Dissolve the vegetable bouillon powder in the boiling water.

Stir-fry the onion, garlic, and red pepper in the two oils.

Add the curry powder, soya sauce, and the vegetable bouillon mixture, and stir-fry for 1 min.

Push the stir-fry mixture to the side in order to scramble the eggs, separating the eggs into bite-size pieces.

Now stir in the rice with the fresh cilantro.

Season to taste with salt and continue to stir-fry until heated through.

Serves 4 as a side, 2 as a main.

Long-grain Rice

3 cups water
salt
3/4 cup long-grain brown rice, soaked for 1 hour, then drained and rinsed
3/4 cup long-grain white rice

Bring the water and salt to taste to a boil.

Add the rices, cover, return to a boil, and simmer for 20 min. or until all the water has been absorbed.

Serves 4.

Welcome Foodies!

Wonderful to meet  YOU ! At Vegetarian Detective, I share with you some of my favourite veggie, vegan and raw recipes. I know you’ve noticed that eating meat-free is a popular trend everywhere. Even going veggie just once a week. There are many reasons why. This is how. You're also invited to get to know me (Cynthia's favourite character) better by reading the mystery novels I'm in: A Purse to Die For and A Killer Necklace . Yours, Becki Green (Vegetarian Detective)

#110 The Case of Poutine

"Poutine is a typical Canadian dish (originally from Quebec ), made with French fries , topped with brown gravy and curd cheese ."—Wikipedia N utritionists worldwide may be screaming in horror that poutine has captured the world by storm but, proud Canadian that I am, I'm shouting, "Yippee!" To be sure, vegetarians are reputed to eat more along the lines of tofu, broccoli and brown rice but an occasional poutine won't kill us. In fact, fast-food poutine makes quite a comforting indulgence! Did you know that poutine gravy, which is generally made from a mix, is vegetarian? Valerie of McCormick Canada Inc. confirmed to me by phone that Club House Brown Gravy Mix contains no meat products. Silly to write out a recipe. All you do is sprinkle French fries with cheese curds then pour brown gravy over top. Seriously...yum! ♥ Becki PS To leave me (and Cynthia) a message, click on the comment button below.
