• cooked rice– I used regular long grain rice. Brown rice may be fine, but you should use easy-to-cook varieties or pre-cooked brown rice.
• Fried vegetables– We used a prepackaged stir-fried vegetable blend from the produce department
• ginger– Adds a fresh, bright flavor to your dishes. Grated ginger can be substituted.
• Reduced salt soy sauce– Add saltiness, umami. I always use a low-sodium soy sauce that gives me more control over the sodium content in my recipes.
• brown sugar– Adds rich caramel sweetness
• minced garlic– We love garlic, so we use a tablespoon. Garlic powder can be substituted.
• sesame oil– Sesame oil has a strong flavor and can be overwhelming. If you don’t like the taste, you can omit it.
• salt and pepper– Season to taste
