This is not your regular Asian style fried rice, but it is good.

The ingredients are simple: 1 cup of white, long grain rice (I used the cheap Walmart brand and saved my good Jasmine rice for something else), a bit of oil and a can of beef broth.

Brown the rice in a bit of oil on top of the stove until it gets toasty looking. I used a corning ware casserole dish. Anything that is both stove-top safe and oven proof would work.

Don’t worry about the two grains that jumped out of the dish while I was cooking them. I must have gotten carried away with stirring – it could happen to you too.

After the rice is brown, pour the can of beef broth over it but Do Not Stir! I don’t know why. My mom told me not to stir it, so I never do and it turns out every time. Put it in the oven at 375 degrees for about 30 minutes. If it starts to look too dry you can add a little water. I don’t usually have to do that.

My kids love this, consequently we never have any left overs.
