A quick, easy, and very good recipe that can be made with leftover ham, beef, or pork — or with no meat at all.
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup chopped cooked meat
4 cups cooked white rice (2 cups uncooked)
1/2 cup canned sliced mushrooms, drained
1-1/2 tablespoons chopped scallions
1 red bell pepper, diced
2 tomatoes, diced
1 hard-boiled egg, sliced
2 to 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or more to taste)
2 to 3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon celery seeds
In a large heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the meat and brown slowly. Then add the remaining ingredients and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often. Serve hot.
