If you’re in the mood for a fulfilling but simple meal, you have to try this easy fried rice with beef and Chinese sausages! If you’re not familiar with Chinese sausages, you are in for a real treat! These can be found at your local oriental market or Wal-Mart.
Growing up, you could almost bet that these would be in our fridge. It was commonly eaten along with jasmine rice whenever we needed a quick meal which was so satisfying to me. I love the sweetness in these sausages although I’m not entirely fond of the oiliness.
However, I’ve come to learn that the oily aspect really adds a nice flavor to the fried rice. I wasn’t aware of adding these sausages into fried rice until I met a childhood friend who was Chinese. This style is how her family would make their fried rice, which I obviously grew to love!
If you need a fried rice that’s more light, check out my shrimp fried rice which is also tasty!
