Chinese Broccoli and Shiitake Rice Stir Fry
Ingredients
- 1 bunch Chinese broccoli
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 1/2 teaspoons packed dark brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems trimmed, sliced 1/4 inch thick
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
- 1/2 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 medium garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups steamed long-grain brown rice, chilled
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 scallions, minced (white and light green parts only)
Directions
Cut the gai lan leaves from the stems. Cut the stems crosswise into ¼-inch-thick pieces; place in a small bowl. Stack the leaves and cut crosswise into 1-inch-wide pieces; set aside. Place the soy sauce, brown sugar, and Sriracha in a small bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick frying pan or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms, sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of the salt, and cook, stirring rarely, until browned around the edges, about 3 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a medium bowl. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the same pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the reserved gai lan stems, onion, garlic, and remaining ½ teaspoon salt and cook until the onions have softened, about 5 minutes. Add the reserved gai lan leaves, rice, and cooked mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leaves just start to wilt and the mixture is heated through, about 4 minutes. Add the reserved soy sauce mixture and stir to combine. Push the rice mixture to one side of the pan, add the eggs, and cook, stirring occasionally with a rubber spatula, until almost set, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Remove the pan from heat, sprinkle with the scallions, and toss to combine. Serve immediately.
