Good Luck Fried Rice

Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients:

2 Tbsps. vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsps. oolong tea leaves
1 cup diced cooked meat, such as char siu or roasted ducks
1/4 cup pine nuts
1 cup shredded Napa cabbage
1/2 cup diced Chinese long beans or green beans
1 egg, lightly beaten
5 cups cold cooked long-grain rice, grains separated
1/2 cup thawed frozen corn
1/4 cup golden raisins
3 Tbsps. chicken broth
2 Tbsps. oyster sauce
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. ground white pepper

Cooking:

Place a stir-fry pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add oil, swirling to coat sides. Add garlic and tea leaves; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add meat, pine nuts, Napa cabbage, and beans; cook, stirring, until vegetables are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. Add egg and cook, lightly stirring, until it begins to set, about 1 minute. Add rice, separating grains with back of spoon. Add corn, raisins, broth, oyster-flavored sauce, salt, and pepper; mix well. Cook until rice is heated through, 2 to 3 minutes more.
