    My  Filipino Fried Rice recipe  is a versatile and hearty


    breakfast, lunch, or dinner recipe based on the fried rice I grew up
    eating as a kid.   
    The sound of constant, loud female chatter in the kitchen.

    The sight of my great-grandmother slathering butter onto white


    bread then sprinkling it with sugar for my afternoon snack.

    The smell of fried rice, Spam, and fried eggs filling the air for
    breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
    Food holds powerful memory magic for me. There is an
    emotional connection that binds me to certain dishes and is
    awakened each time my present day self catches a whiff or sight
    or hears echoes from food memories of the past.

    My birthday was yesterday, and since it's my birthday week, I


    thought I'd share one of my childhood favorites with you
    all: Filipino Fried Rice.

    Filipino Fried Rice


    Traditional Filipino Fried Rice is simply garlicky fried rice.

    Over the years, I've come to realize that - much like other
    traditional dishes, like chicken adobo (check out this Instant
    Pot Chicken Adobo recipe. It's SO good!) and pancit - every
    island in the Philippines and every Filipino family prepares this
    classic dish a bit differently.
    For instance, growing up here in the United States, my family's
    version of Longsilog (Filipino sausage with rice and eggs),
    was Spam, fried rice, and fried eggs. This was because it was a
    lot easier to find (and cheaper to buy) Spam at the supermarket
    back then, than it was to find and buy longsilog.

    My Filipino Fried Rice Recipe with Bacon or


    Sausage
    Over the years, I've enjoyed many, many, MANY different
    versions of Filipino Fried Rice, made by family members, friends,
    and professional chefs. I've learned that it is very rare to find
    one particular preparation of almost any Filipino dish that is
    consistent among Filipino chefs and home cooks alike.
    I mean, if we were going to call this TRUE Filipino food, I
    wouldn't have photos of utensils here at all - I grew up with the
    understanding that rice is always to be eaten with nature's
    best gifts: your hands.

    But truth be told, I sometimes use chopsticks, which


    is very untraditional for Filipino food.
    So this Filipino Fried Rice recipe is a nod to the spirit in which
    traditional Filipino Fried Rice is made. It's made with my
    personal Filipino-American twist, from my family to yours.

    The version I am sharing with you is the one I make now with
    my own family. I usually make it with bacon, and I adore the
    high quality of Snake River Farms Bacon in dishes like this.
    Sometimes, however, I will also make this fried rice with
    sausage. And here's the thing about making sausage fried
    rice: do not get caught up on the exact type of sausage you use.
    Like many Filipino recipes, this is a "use what's in the fridge"
    type of recipe. So whatever your favorite sausage is, use that!

    Filipino Fried Rice Recipe


    a quick, easy family recipe
    My teenager LOVES this fried rice recipe! And, I love making it.

    This easy Filipino recipe always brings me back to the sights,


    smells, and sounds of home. It takes me back to growing up
    with a boisterous Filipino family who loved to cook. We enjoyed
    meals together whether the recipes were old-school traditional
    recipes or inspired by our Filipino roots.

    stir together with rice and veggies.
