Instructions

  1. 1Place a 30.48 cm wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of coconut oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the 1/2 medium onion, chopped into 0.635 cm pieces, and the 2 cloves of garlic, minced. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the garlic is fragrant and the onion is softened and translucent.
  2. 2Add the 1/2 cup carrot, diced into 0.635 cm cubes, the 1/2 cup green beans, chopped into 1.27 cm pieces, and the 1/2 cup peas to the wok. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring the vegetables occasionally, until they are tender-crisp.
  3. 3Add the 4 cups of cooked rice and the 3 tablespoons of soy sauce to the wok. Stir everything together well, breaking up any clumps of rice. Continue to stir-fry for 5 to 7 minutes, until the rice is heated through and evenly coated with the soy sauce, with some grains starting to lightly brown.
  4. 4Stir in the 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder and the 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Mix thoroughly until the turmeric is evenly distributed throughout the rice and vegetables.
  5. 5Remove the wok from the heat. Stir in the 1/4 cup of green onions, sliced.
  6. 6Serve the Burmese Fried Rice hot.
