Best made with Stellar Basmati (cold, day-old)

Ingredients

What you'll need.

  • 4 cups cold cooked Stellar Basmati (best from the day before)
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced; 1 carrot, diced; ¾ cup peas; ¾ cup corn
  • 3 scallions; 2 garlic cloves; 2 tbsp soy sauce; 1 tbsp sesame oil; 2 tbsp neutral oil
  • Optional: 1 tsp chilli flakes, fresh cilantro
Method

How to make it.

  1. Heat a wok or large pan over high heat with the neutral oil.
  2. Stir-fry carrot and pepper 2–3 min; add garlic, peas and corn, 2 min.
  3. Add the cold rice, breaking up clumps; stir-fry 3–4 min so grains catch and crisp slightly.
  4. Add soy sauce and sesame oil, toss 1 min. Off heat, stir through scallions and herbs.
Tip · Cold rice is the secret — fresh-cooked rice turns gluey. Spread leftover Stellar on a tray and chill.
