Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a small bowl, whisk together 5 tablespoons fresh lime juice, 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce, 2 teaspoons fish sauce, and 1 teaspoon sugar until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
-
Step 2.
Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms and cook, tossing occasionally, until just golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate.
-
Step 3.
Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil. Add 4 thinly sliced scallions, 1 piece ginger cut into matchsticks, 2 thinly sliced garlic cloves, and 1 thinly sliced jalapeño. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute until fragrant.
-
Step 4.
Add 4 cups cooked basmati rice and 1 cup edamame (thawed if frozen) to the skillet. Cook, tossing to combine, for 1 minute until the rice is heated through.
-
Step 5.
Pour the reserved soy sauce mixture into the skillet and add the cooked mushrooms. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through, about 1 minute.
-
Step 6.
Serve the fried rice topped with a fried egg per serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and lime wedges if desired.
