2. Detailed Steps to Make Beef and Vegetable Fried Rice
Step 1: Prepare Ingredients for Beef and Vegetable Fried Rice
Creating a delicious and enticing beef and vegetable fried rice in just 15 minutes for your morning requires some preparation with the following ingredients:
- Spread the rice on a large plate to cool, ensuring it's a bit dry. Gently squeeze the rice with clean hands to loosen the grains.

- Rinse the pickled mustard greens thoroughly, cut them into small pieces.

Step 2: Prepare Meat for Beef and Vegetable Fried Rice
Note that you should also do this step the night before!
- Clean the beef sirloin, place it in the freezer for about 3 minutes to firm up, making it easier to slice.
- Slice the beef sirloin into thin, bite-sized pieces.
- Marinate the beef with 1 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 teaspoon of oyster sauce, and ½ teaspoon of sugar. Mix well and let it marinate for about 15 minutes.
Step 3:
- Peel and finely chop the dried shallots and garlic.
- Heat cooking oil in a hot pan, then sauté the aromatic mixture of shallots and garlic.
- Then add the bowl of beef to the pan, set the heat to high, stir-fry until the meat is cooked, then transfer it to a separate bowl.

- Reuse the same pan, add another tablespoon of cooking oil, then quickly stir-fry the pickled mustard greens over high heat. Add a tablespoon of soy sauce and stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes.
- Next, add the bowl of beef to the pan, mix well until the beef and pickled mustard greens are thoroughly combined. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and set aside.
Step 4: Cook Beef and Vegetable Fried Rice
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them.
- Add 2 teaspoons of cooking oil to a hot pan. Sauté the shallots and garlic, then add the bowl of leftover rice.
- Turn the heat to high and stir-fry the rice for about 5-8 minutes. Then add the beaten eggs, stir until the rice grains are fluffy. Season with 1 teaspoon of oyster sauce and 1 teaspoon of soy sauce.
- Finally, add the pan of cooked beef and pickled mustard greens to the rice in the pan.
- Lightly mix with salt, adjust the seasoning according to your taste. Then add finely chopped green onions.
- Turn off the heat, transfer the rice to a serving bowl, and serve hot. If it seems bland, you can add it with garlic-infused soy sauce.
If you prefer crispy fried rice, you can cook it a bit longer. For softer rice, after mixing the meat and pickled greens with rice, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to achieve a dry and fluffy texture.

Wishing you success and a delicious meal!
