Fried Rice with Ginger Strips

Ginger is known as a wonderful spice in Chinese, Malay and 

Indian cooking methods. 

Its’ natural strong, spice flavor produce a fragrant smell in most

 dishes, both Asian and Western cuisines.

I love to use ginger in my daily main course meals, cookies, cakes 

and beverages.

One of my favorite fried rice recipes is this dish Fried Rice with 

Ginger Strips

 

 

Benefits of eating ginger

According to Chinese beliefs, ginger benefits our stomach and aids

 in digestion of oil, fats or hard to digest food. 

Woman who is in confinement after birth of a newborn baby, had

 to ( compulsory ) to eat food mixed with ginger in order to expel

 cold and wind in the body. 

It is believed that ginger aids in producing heat in the woman body,

 release sweat, “unclean” fluids in the body and keep the abdomen 

warm at all times.

In addition ginger helps to protect your body from cold, runny 

nose or flu.

Since raw ginger taste a little spicy, you could add in slices of 

ginger into your stir fry recipes to enhance the taste.

You don’t have to consume the ginger itself, just allow the ginger

 juice to penetrate its nutrients into the food.

 

Ways to eat ginger

Squeeze out ginger juice, marinate with chicken or pork 

meats 

Cut raw ginger into match sticks, deep fried until crispy. 

Crunchy bites goes well with hot porridge, steamed fish or 

meats and soups.

Replace chopped garlic with slices of ginger. 

Induce the oil with ginger flavor.

Boil 2 cups of water with slices of ginger, mix with brown 

sugar or honey to cure flu, cold or runny nose.

Add slices of ginger into coconut rice milk

 ( nasi lemak-Malay staple food) to enhance the flavor

Add ginger into soups to expel wind, produces heat and 

warm up the stomach

 

Whether you are in the confinement period or as fit as a horse,

 try this Fried Rice with Ginger Strips for a change. 

You may love ginger after a bite !

    • I love fried rice especially the chao fan of Chowking though sometimes I cook my own version of fried rice at home. I have not known the ginger for fried rice and as I read the article, I was given the idea to use it in my future recipe. I just hope the kids would like it because of its spicy taste.
