TOASTED COCONUT RICE WITH BOK CHOY AND FRIED EGGS



Toasted Coconut Rice With Bok Choy and Fried Eggs image

Coconut oil toasts rice grains, lightly coats vegetables, and sizzles eggs in this dish, lending its unique tropical taste and richness. You get an extra dose of richness if you leave the egg yolks runny and cut and swirl them into the rice and greens mixture. If you're vegan, you can fry tofu or tempeh in the coconut oil instead. If you're gluten-free, you can use tamari in place of the soy sauce. Here, too, feel free to use prepackaged, trimmed haricots verts if you're short on time, or wax beans, in place of the green beans.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 large eggs
3 tablespoons coconut oil
2 cups jasmine or other medium-grain rice (12 ounces), rinsed and drained
Kosher salt
8 ounces bok choy
6 ounces green beans
Toasted sesame seeds, soy sauce and Sriracha, for serving

Steps:

  • Take your eggs out of the fridge so they won't be ice-cold when you fry them.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the rice, sprinkle with salt, and cook, stirring frequently, until the grains start to look translucent and smell toasty, about 3 minutes. Add 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and steam for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, trim the bok choy and green beans. If the bok choy are large, halve them lengthwise, then cut into 3-inch pieces crosswise. Scatter the green beans over the rice (the water will be mostly absorbed) and sprinkle with salt. Spread the bok choy on top of the beans and season with salt. Drizzle or dollop 1 tablespoon oil over the greens. Cover and steam until the greens and rice are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • When the rice is almost done, heat the remaining tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Crack the eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set and the yolks runny, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Divide the rice and vegetables among 4 dishes. Slide an egg onto each. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, and season to taste with soy sauce and Sriracha.

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cups cooked, day-old jasmine rice (or 1 cup uncooked jasmine rice; see Tip)
5 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
3/4 pound mixed fresh mushrooms, such as shiitake and cremini, thinly sliced, or whole shimeji mushrooms
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 pound baby bok choy (about 8 small baby bok choy), trimmed, then sliced crosswise 1/2-inch thick
5 scallions, trimmed, greens and whites thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1 jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
3/4 cup frozen peas
2 to 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger (from one 2-inch piece)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1/8 teaspoon white pepper (optional)
1/2 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Take the cooked rice out of the refrigerator, and set it aside at room temperature.
  • In a large wok or nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons canola oil over medium-high. Add the mushrooms, season generously with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and tender, 5 or 6 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Wipe out the skillet, if needed, then add 1 tablespoon canola oil and heat over medium-high. Add the bok choy, scallions, garlic and jalapeño, if using. Season with salt and pepper and stir-fry, stirring frequently, until aromatic and barely crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the bowl with the mushrooms.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high. Add the rice and cook, stirring occasionally, until toasted and toothsome, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the frozen peas, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper (if using), and stir until rice is evenly coated in soy sauce mixture, and no uncoated rice grains remain, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the mushroom and bok choy mixture and the basil until basil is wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper then divide among bowls; serve hot.
