Vegan Curried Rice

Vegan Curried rice is a delicious blend of garden fresh vegetables tossed in a wok with a little ginger, curry and garlicky fried brown rice.

Vegan Curried Rice is a simple way to meet our goals of eating loads of colorful vegetables and eating just a tiny bit of carbohydrates in the form of brown rice. I know that usually rice is the main ingredient in fried rice dishes but today the star of the show are the fresh veggies and spices. Seriously this whole dish only has about 1 cup cooked brown rice and this is for 4 people. This is a great way to keep any diabetics in your family happy as they get to eat fried rice, well mostly veggies...but with a few grains of rice.

Directions

1. Make sure you have all of your items chopped and ready to go as this recipe is going to go fast. In a wok or frying pan, add your oil and heat to medium high heat. Add your fresh ginger and garlic (please note if you are using dried ground ginger and garlic add these only after you have added your vegetables to the wok) and stir fry just until aromatic then quickly add your carrots and broccoli. Keep stirring and keep the items in your wok moving. Add salt and pepper to taste and add 1 tablespoon of water and put on lid for about 1 minute, just to do a flash steam of your veggies. DO NOT overcook. You want your vegetables to be crisp aldente. (You can use any vegetables you have in your crisper for this recipe)
2. Remove lid from your wok/frying pan and toss your veggies. The water should be evaporated. Add the cooked brown rice and curry powder and toss until all of the rice is well coated. (If your rice starts to stick then add just a touch more olive oil). Add a handful of spinach and just toss until wilted about 1 minute. Taste test your stir fry and adjust seasoning as desired.
3. Serve your delicious vegan curried rice hot from the wok. Enjoy!
