Special Fried Rice, Spicy Broccoli, and Sesame Salad

Menu Vegetarian

 

This menu came from Rachael Ray’s 30 Minute Show. It will be aired

again on Food TV September 25 and 2:30 if you want to watch it.

 

Since her sequence of preparing the meal is not included at Foodtv.com;

I take notes while watching her show.

1. Heat Pans, except for the wok (or large, deep skillet).

2. Make salad dressing.

3. Put rice in water.

5. Make salad.

6. Put broccoli in water.

7. Turn on the wok.

8. Prepare the ingredients for the fried rice.

9. Spread cooked rice on a cookies sheet for it to cool, preparing it

to be fried.

10. Remove Broccoli and drain. Put the ingredients in same pan and

follow the broccoli recipe.
