WOW’EM WEDNESDAY – ROSE’S HEN, ZEN & CRUSTACEANS FRIED RICE

 
Yesterday was Wow’em Wednesday and Rose’s Hen, Zen & Crustaceans Fried Rice was prepared.

 

This dish did not have the aesthetic appeal I desired, but, I think it still wowed’em because every grain of rice disappeared from plates and pan.  Since this was not the prettiest dish I could have prepared, I must (apologetically so), decline to include a photo. But I will share with you, the recipe and photos of some of the ingredients I used to prepare this ugly but yummy dish. 

This dish was served with homemade egg rolls and rice noodles. The sauce that came with the rice noodles was a little sweet, but paired perfectly with the fried rice.  This was my first experience with rice noodles.  I got this little pack for about 70 cents and there was not enough for the four of us to get a full serving, but we were all able to get a sampling.

 

                                      I retrieved the cute little Snow Fox soy sauce pack from a restaurant

 

  The egg rolls were very simple to make.  I got these egg roll skins from one of my favorite Richmond hangouts, The Oriental Market.  I cooked the cabbage as usual, wrapped the cabbage in the egg roll skins.

 My daughter, Erica is a champion egg roll roller

 

 This is perfect when you want to quickly prepare a cabbage dish

 Fried the egg rolls in a little oil.  These are fun little appetizers that really fun to make with the family.
