Sweet Chilli Crispy Beef Fried Rice

This is one of those fakeaways that genuinely makes you forget about ordering in. Crispy sweet chilli beef, a sticky moreish sauce and egg fried rice, all made at home with simple ingredients and cheaper than a takeaway! It hits all the same flavours you’re craving, but feels lighter, quicker and honestly just as satisfying.

Step 1

Make sure the rice is already cooked and completely cooled before starting. Cold rice works best for fried rice as it stays separate rather than clumping. See notes for a speed hack!

Notes

Whisking the egg white until cloudy helps the cornflour cling to the beef, giving a lighter, crispier coating. Speed hack for the rice: If you don’t have day old rice, spread freshly cooked rice out on a tray and leave uncovered for 10 minutes, or chill in the fridge for 20-30 minutes to dry it out before frying. I use beef stir fry strips, but you can use rump steak cut against the grain. I like to slice my beef into thin strips even when pre-bought to get that takeout feel. This is a fakeaway style dinner so there’s more beef and more sauce, however you can reduce the sweet chilli sauce to 3 tbsp or skip the honey to save on some cals if needed. Use dark soy just for colour. It’s there to deepen colour, not saltiness, so don’t swap it 1:1 with light soy. Sweet chilli and soy vary a lot by brand, so taste before adding extra salt. Add peas or sweetcorn to the rice for extra veg
