Quick Meal Idea – Beef Fried Rice
This is my take on beef fried rice, inspired by my need to do something with leftover roast beef. I wouldn’t say this is the most authentic version of beef fried rice, it’s just one of those recipes where you take what you have in the fridge and create a masterpiece. Many of the meals we’ve come to enjoy in our respective cultures were born out of the need to clean out the fridge. Tweak this recipe to your liking.
Ingredients (Yields 2 servings):
1 healthy glass of wine for you to drink while cooking
1/2 cup leftover roast beef cut into small cubes
1/4 cup bell pepper (I used red bell peppers here, use whatever kind you have)
1/4 cup diced onion
Couple cloves of garlic
1 cup cooked rice
Few dashes worschestire sauce
Few dashes soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
1. Heat vegetable or canola oil in non-stick skillet or wok until hot.
2. Add onion and bell pepper, sautee until almost translucent. Add garlic, continue cooking until the garlic becomes aromatic
4. Add roast beef to veggies, cooking until it starts to brown on the edges. You may want to start seasoning with a little salt and pepper here, to taste.
5. Add cooked rice to the meat and veggie mix. Turn your fire down a bit, and incorporate rice, meat, and veggies. Add soy sauce and worschestire sauce to taste. Add more salt and pepper to your liking. Serve hot.

The final product!
This is my first time making this particular dish, I think it would also be great with a little egg, maybe some chopped celery, and red pepper flakes. I hope you try and enjoy!
