I made this dish today on Cookpad today via Facebook. I love stir fry rice and this is a really popular Indonesian dish.

The recipe we followed was by Kezia but unfortunately I didn't have all of the ingredients. So I just used what I had at home.

Here is my inspired version of the nasi goreng dish. For me the fried egg with the runny yolk on top of the rice adds the perfect combination .

I hope you enjoy making and eating this as much as we do.

Steps

1

Transfer the refrigerator rice into a mixing bowl, break to the rice grains and set side.
2

Using a mortar and pestle or a mini food processor, add onion or shallot, garlic, red or green chillis and blend into a paste. Transfer the blended paste into a small bowl.
3

In a wok on medium heat, add cooking oil. Add the blended paste and shrimp paste, fry until aromatic or when the oil separates.
4

Then add rice to the wok and stir continuously to coat the rice with the spices. Add the peas and stir to fully mix into the rice. Once well mixed in, add the sweet soya sauce and incorporate well into the rice.
5

Once rice is fully coated, season with light soya sauce, sugar (optional), ground white pepper, salt (optional) and sesame oil (optional). Taste and adjust as necessary (add more sweet soya sauce, white pepper, sugar etc).
6

Turn heat to low, in the meantime time to fry the egg. In a small pan on high heat add cooking oil. Let the oil heat up and once hot, then add the egg. Fry egg to preference (I like my egg yolk quite runny).
7

Once ready to plate up, transfer rice into a serving plate or bowl, add the fried egg on top or on the side and garnish with chopped spring onions (optional). If you have cucumber (optional) add a few slices on the side and lime wedges.
