Today I cooked fried rice to find out how it's cooked. It's really easy...but, I realised, pretty unhealthy too.
There were lots of salt, soy sauce and oyster sauce dumped into the fried rice. I know that it's to make it taste better, but really I feel that we could decrease the amounts a bit. Especially since the egg seemed rather salty - even more so than the rice, which tasted rather plain in comparison. I think we could decrease the salt and soy sauce content in the egg, which would balance out the food a little.
There could be less oil, too - there seemed to be too much oil being dumped in the wok. Plus the white rice could be changed for brown rice - which tastes much less the same but is even healthier.
I think I could increase the amounts of vegetables to increase the dietary fibre content of the meal - especially since, well, I don't have enough dietary fibre.
