Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine, or more to taste
  2. 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  3. 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  4. 5 ounces pork fillet, thinly sliced
  5. 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  6. ½ onion, diced
  7. 2 teaspoons curry powder
  8. ¼ teaspoon water
  9. 1 spring onion, or more to taste, sliced
  10. ½ teaspoon salt
  11. 1 ¾ cups cold cooked rice
  12. ¾ cup green peas

Instructions

  1. Mix rice wine, soy sauce, and cornstarch together in a bowl. Add pork; toss until evenly mixed.
  2. Preheat a wok or deep saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour in peanut oil. Cook pork in the hot oil in batches until evenly browned, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Transfer to a plate using a slotted spoon. Cook onion in the remaining oil until softened, 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Mix curry powder and water in a bowl to form a paste.
  4. Stir curry paste, spring onion, and salt into the wok. Add rice, stirring to break up any lumps. Stir in peas. Return pork to the wok; cook and stir until rice and pork are heated through, 4 to 5 minutes.

I can’t get enough of this recipe. I may add garlic salt and garlic powder for taste but I usually make 6 batches at a time and freeze portions in ziplock bags so good. To me, this is more like Indian food. love it

Straight forward and tastes good what more can you ask for.

I too left out the curry paste, like the other reviewer. My kids said it was fine, not great. A little dry, needs more sauce of some sort. However, it was a nice dinner and we felt satisfied.

Delicious. I used Lima beans and carrots. I didn’t have peas. I left out the curry paste not a fan of curry flavor.
