Fried Rice

I Love Fried rice. I will admit to making my own and NOT on Plan. I do use Low sodium soy sauce, but try to drink extra water to flush. I dont add snow peas, rather I stick to whatever I have on hand, usually onion , peppers chopped mushroom and maybe a chopped broccoli floret or two.

I used to make this a lot when I was on Keto. I used cauliflower rice that I bought frozen.

                                                  FRIED BROWN RICE

BMOS Note: Although the original recipe posted in early 2003 called for a handful of frozen peas and low sodium soy sauce, to keep this recipe completely on-plan we have made the substitutions below.

• 4 cups leftover cooked, cold brown rice
• 1 teaspoon minced ginger
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 large onion, chopped
• ½ lb mushrooms
• 2-3 green onions, sliced
• handful of fresh or frozen snow peas
• any other compatible vegetables you have in your refrigerator, chopped
• soy sauce substitute (see Condiments Section, this forum)
• water or nsa chicken broth as desired, for sautéing (optional)

In a large non-stick skillet, sauté the ginger, garlic, onion, mushrooms and any other vegetables that need pre-cooking, for about 5 minutes over medium-high heat. (BMOS Note: You may add a bit of broth if you wish, or rely upo the vegetables' natural moisture for sautéing.) Transfer to a bowl. Dry off bottom of skillet, return to heat and add rice. Dry fry rice for a while, until some it turns golden brown. Add back cooked vegetables, green onions, and snow peas. Sprinkle with soy sauce substitute to taste and mix well.

Singapore Rice Nodles

• 4 oz rice noodles (Rice noodles or rice vermicelli usually comes packaged with 4 layers so I pulled one portion which is 4.375 dry oz)
• ½ red pepper
• ½ green pepper
• 1 medium onion
• nsa chicken stock or water for sautéing
• 2 garlic cloves, pureed
• 1 tablespoon nsa curry powder, dissolved in ¼ cup water

Soak noodles in boiling water for about 5-10 minutes. Thinly slice peppers and onion. Sauté in a little bit of water or chicken stock (I used homemade - no salt) for just a minute or two. Add pureed garlic cloves and water with dissolved curry powder. Simmer on high until half the water is gone and then add the noodles and toss and simmer until most of the liquid is evaporated.

You can have them as a side to something else or toss in some steamed shrimp and sprinkle some fresh lime juice over all.

Hash Browns - 6WBMO

I Love potatoes. Growing up I was the "mashed potato kid"  :-D
The one thing I missed when I was doing keto was potatoes.

I found in walmart potatoes without extra seasoning in the freezer section. Big time saver because dicing potatoes isn't in my talents.
This recipe calls for chipotle pepper. I dont know about that but it worth a try.
I just make mine with onion and red bell pepper. I started adding mushroom as well. 2 scrambled egg whites top it off.
A nice hearty breakfast.

Garlic Mashed Potatoes -6WBMO

Garlic Mashed Potatoes
__________________________________________________________________________

From member JenL. If you don't want to bake the potatoes early, be prepared from start to finish for this to take anywhere from 2 to 2 ½ hours. I like to bake the potatoes EARLY like 3 and let them cool 20 minutes to start the second part. I recommend making larger batches of this. It is great for leftovers.

BMOS Note: The number of portions yielded from this recipe will depend upon the size of the potatoes used.

• 6-8 potatoes
• ½ cup nsa chicken broth (you may actually use less depending on the size of your potatoes)
• ¼ cup onion flakes
• 2 tablespoons minced fresh garlic
pepper, optional

Wash the potatoes well. Be sure to pierce the skin with a fork in different places (It helps reduce the cooking time.) Bake in the oven at 425º till the potatoes are soft and you can easily pierce them with a fork. Take out and let cool somewhat. (It's not necessary to let them cool if you can handle them when they're hot!) Peel the potatoes and place them in a bowl. You'll want to use a fork to mash them up. Add the onion flakes and the garlic. Mix well. Now with your mixer whip up the potatoes. Slowly add the broth and pepper if you like. You want them to look the normal consistency of mashed potatoes. SOOOOO GOOD!

You can lower the amounts of garlic and onion in this if you don't like it to taste as strong. I personally love this meal. The smell is incredible.
