Pork Fried Rice

"Just a simple fried rice - a meal on its own. If you like, pair it with stir-fried vegetables. Try to use cold, leftover rice if possible. You can also use any leftover vegetables in place of the corn."

  1. Indeed a very unique taste to satisfy the crave of difference in cooking. the idea of having curry powder marinated pork with salsa marks its diversity from the authentic flavor. I have the meat cut into very thin strips and marinate it. so that the curry taste can soak entirely into the pork. 1/2 tsp of salt and pepper per 100g of pork. I use the salt very carefully because later there will be soy sauce anyway. and too much salt in the meat will have the meat taste like smoked. Instead of having hot salsa, i use mild one with addition of crushed chili so that the spiciness can be controlled. Overall, a very well thought recipe with uniqueness worth to be experimented.

Hi everyone! I'm addicted to recipezaar - there are so many things that I love about this site; the wonderful people, recipes, lots of great pictures and there's always someone who'll answer my cooking/baking/general question. I grew up in Malaysia, but now live in sunny Singapore. Both are beautiful tropical (read: HOT!) countries in Southeast Asia. There are so many good food here, especially ethnic stuff like spicy Malaysian curries (which will clear the worst blocked nose), flaky & crispy Indian roti paratha/canai, homey Chinese stir-fries, rich & decadent Asian desserts like kuih lapis (Malay many-layers cake), pineapple tarts, crumbly peanut cookies etc. <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v632/zaarfreak/REI/12may05REI2_S.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com">
