Nasi Goreng

Nasi Goreng means "fried rice", but like in french, wording in reverse, making 'nasi' rice. 
This is the safe dish to get when your in a street stall and all other options look scary, or that they might kill you. 

Ingredients for 6 portions

1 TBSP cooking oil
1 TBSP butter
2 TBSP minced garlic
salt and pepper to taste
1 cup any protein cubed (chicken, tofu, tempeh, etc)
2 eggs
3 cups bok choy
1 carrot (we made it cut in strips)
1/2 cup celery leaves
1 big red chili
1.5 cups white cabbage
5 cups cooked rice (better to use old rice)
1 handful of crispy onions
2 TBSP chili ketchup
2 TBSP oyster sauce
1 TBSP soya sauce
1 TBSP fish sauce


Directions

In a large wok, heat oil and butter, salt and pepper. Add your meat. When just cooked, add eggs, and break up/fry it up. Then add veggies. When cooked, add garlic, sauces, and rice, stir fry another 5 minutes to caramelize a bit. Then at the end, throw in the handful of crispy shallots (and use some for presentation on top). 
Enjoy!
