Ginger Beef Fryed Rice

Fried rice has been eaten by Aussies of decades. Yet so few of us have cooked it for ourselves at home. Why?
That authentic take away flavor is not hard to acheve. (Minus the MSG). Asian-Austrialianized flavors are actually very simple. If you can grasp the basic principles of cooking a stir fry, fryed rice is dead easy. First though, allow me to impart a few simple rules for all of us who are not wok masters.....

Use only a high carbon steel wok in the traditional concave shape.

Get your self a mega heavy duty gas burner. (Wok burner, 20,000 btu.)

Stay away from Teflon, or hard anodized woks. They just can't take the heat.

Season your wok with sesame oil. This will make it non stick, naturaly.

Get your self the right tools for the job. Wooden spatular that has been mated to the wok.

Your wok can never be to big.

Don't be afraid to give your wok hell. Carbon steel woks love to be heated to melting point!

Don't be afraid of fire. When your wok is really hot you will get flames leaping out as you cook. (Guests think this is cool, plus they will think the food tastes better. True.)

The final and by far most importaint rule is. 'Hot woks cook quick. Over cooked stir fry tastes like boiled cabbage!!!

Ingredents:

500g sirloin beef.

1 Chorizo sausage.

1/2 cup spring onion choped.

1&1/2 cups sliced bok choy.

3x3x5cm peice of ginger finley choped.

3 cloves of garlic.

4 tbl spoon of soy sauce.

1 tbl spoon of fish sauce.

Peper to taste.

Sesame oil to cook with.

Method:

Marinate the sliced beef and sausage with the ginger, garlic, soy, fish sauce, peper, and a few splashes of sesame oil.

Give it about 20 minutes.

While that is going on. Cook some long-grain rice. 1 dry cup should be good.

Heat your wok to smokeing hot. Add beef and saugsage in batches untill cooked. Remove, reheat wok, add all other ingredents. Stir fry for about 30 seconds. Combine with rice and reseved beef. Add the rest of the marinade and cooking juces. Toss through and serve....

Don't serve wine. Give beer for best results.
