Description

Vegetable fried rice is a popular and versatile dish in Asian cuisine that has been adapted in various cultures around the world. It consists of cooked rice quickly stir-fried in a wok or pan over high heat along with a variety of fresh vegetables, such as carrots, peas, onion, bell pepper, and scallions, in addition to seasonings like soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.

Its origin lies in Chinese cuisine, particularly in Cantonese gastronomy, where using leftover rice is a common practice to create quick and delicious meals. This dish has spread and fused with local ingredients in many countries, becoming a basic and nutritious option.

In terms of properties, vegetable fried rice is a balanced preparation that provides carbohydrates from the rice, and fiber, vitamins, and minerals thanks to the vegetables. Furthermore, it is low in fat when prepared with little oil and can easily be adapted to vegetarian or vegan diets.

In several Latin American countries, this dish may have alternative names or synonyms such as stir-fried rice with vegetables, vegetable chaufa rice (especially in Peru), or simply stir-fried rice. Regardless of the name, it is a basic ingredient in many recipes that aims to provide flavor, texture, and color to any home or professional menu.
