Recipe video above. This recipe was conceived as an emergency, ultra low-effort side dish. Just dump all the ingredients in a pan, and shove it in the oven. End result: seasoned rice that's amazingly similar to wok-tossed fried rice! Every grain of rice is perfectly cooked and fluffy, and the bacon even goes golden!Uses less liquid than the usual 1 : 1.5 rice to water ratio because we need to factor in the water that comes off the frozen vegetables (a surprising amount!).Bonus: this recipe starts with uncooked rice. No need to plan ahead with day-old cooked rice like you usually do!Add in options - like eggs, chicken, see Notes.PLEASE DO NOT stray from recommended rice per recipe. If you do, I cannot guarantee outcome!

Instructions

Preheat oven to 200°C / 390°F (180°C fan).
Mix ingredients in baking dish: Place all Baked Fried Rice ingredients except bacon in a baking dish (~22 x 32cm / 9 x 13"). Stir, then spread rice evenly across pan.
  • 1.5 cups Long Grain White Rice
    UNCOOKED
  • 2 cups Chicken Or Veg Stock
    low sodium
  • 1.5 tbsp Light Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Chinese Cooking Wine
    dry sherry, mirin or sake
  • 2 Garlic Cloves
    minced with crusher (straight into pan)
  • 2 cups Frozen Diced Veg
    carrots, peas, corn mix, fresh veg
  • 0.25 tsp White Pepper
Top with bacon: Scatter bacon across surface.
  • 1.25 cups Bacon Or Ham
    uncooked, chopped (I use store bought chopped bacon)
Bake covered 40 min: Cover with foil. Bake 40 minutes.
Bake uncovered 15 min: Remove foil. Bake uncovered 15 minutes - this will colour the bacon. Liquid should be absorbed, rice should be cooked (but will seem wet, will absorb and soften while resting).
Rest 10 min: Cover loosely with foil, stand for 10 minutes.
Fluff: Add green onion and sesame oil. Fluff rice with fork, marvel at how perfectly cooked the rice grains are. Serve!
  • 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
  • 0.5 cup Green Onion
    finely sliced (2 - 3 stems)
