Instructions
- Prepare all your ingredients. Have your prepped ingredients close by since this recipe cooks fast.
- In a small bowl, combine fish sauce, Golden Mountain sauce, salt and pepper and set aside.
- Heat the wok over high heat for few minutes and add oil. Add the sausage and cook for 2-3 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from wok using slotted spoon and set aside in bowl. Leave 3 tablespoons of remaining oil in wok and discard the rest.
- Heat the wok again over high heat until oil is shimmering. Add lightly scrambled eggs into the wok spreading it around the bottom. When the eggs are almost set but not brown, add the rice and stir fry for 3 minutes.
- Make a well in the center and add the greens (spinach, bok choy, broccoli) for about a minute until they start to wilt. Then quickly stir fry to combine all ingredients.
- Add cooked sausage and mix to combine. Add the bowl with salt, pepper, fish sauce and Golden Mountain seasoning sauce (or light soy sauce) into the wok and mix well. Add more fish sauce or Golden Mountain sauce if needed. (Note: if you’re using Golden Mountain sauce, a little goes a long way so add in small amounts.)
- Remove wok from heat and add white and light green scallions. Stir to combine.
- Transfer to bowls or plates and garnish with dark green scallions. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Tip: if you’re reheating this the next day, use this tip to keep rice from becoming hard or dry. Before you place the bowl in the microwave to reheat, soak a paper towel in water making sure to squeeze out the excess water and carefully cover the bowl. Reheat as usual. The water from the paper towel will rehydrate and steam the rice. * Note regarding pricing: The price for the pantry items such as olive oil takes into account the cost of the amount used for the recipe and not the cost if you had to purchase the entire jar or bottle. ** All prices in US dollars.
