Bok Choy Fried Rice!

INGREDIENTS:

  1. 3 cups cold, cooked rice (day-old works best)
  2. 1 head baby garlic (or regular garlic), peeled and minced
  3. 2 cups chopped kale
  4. 2 cups chopped bok choy
  5. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or ghee
  6. 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  7. Salt and pepper to taste
  8. Optional additions: cooked egg, other vegetables (carrots, peas, etc.)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and chop the kale and bok choy. Mince the garlic.
  2. Stir-fry Greens: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large pan over high heat until smoking. Add the kale and bok choy, season with salt, and stir-fry until bright green and slightly wilted (about 1 minute). Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  3. Stir-fry Garlic and Rice: Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok and heat until smoking. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 15 seconds until fragrant. Add the cold rice and stir immediately to coat with the oil, breaking up any clumps.
  4. Combine and Season: Season the rice with salt and pepper. Add the soy sauce. Return the cooked kale and bok choy to the pan. Toss everything together to combine.
  5. Serve: Serve immediately. You can add optional toppings like a fried egg or extra vegetables if desired.
