We’ve taken the best parts of your standard fried rice, simplified them and returned a meal that will be whipped up in a flash without compromising on flavour. Our Asian BBQ seasoning mingles with the egg and rice so well and when you add a simple oyster sauce mixture to pork strips, there will be flavour aplenty.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

Cook the rice & get prepped
1

• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with the boiling water.
• Add basmati rice and a pinch of salt and cook, uncovered, over high heat until tender, 12 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, trim and roughly chop pea pods. 
• In a small bowl, combine sweet black bean sauce, the water and brown sugar. 

Make the fried rice
2

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook 
pea pods and the egg, tossing, until tender and egg is scrambled, 2-3 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium, then add garlic paste, Asian BBQ seasoning and 
cooked rice and cook, tossing until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Season with pepper, transfer to serving bowls and cover to keep warm. 

Cook the pork strips
3

• Wipe out frying pan and return to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook pork strips in batches, until golden, 2-4 minutes.
• In the last minute of cook time, return all pork to the pan and stir in the black bean sauce mixture, tossing to coat. 


Little cooks: Take the lead by adding the oyster sauce mixture to the pan. Be careful, the pan is hot and may spatter!

Finish & serve
4

• Top garlic fried rice with glazed pork strips to serve. Enjoy! 


Little cooks: Take charge by plating up the meal!


ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients to this recipe, thinly slice long chilli (if using), then top fried rice with chilli. Sprinkle with crushed peanuts. Tear over 
coriander to serve.

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour: Most found the dish tasty and well-balanced, though some felt the flavours were mild and benefited from adding chilli flakes or chilli-garlic oil.
  • Ease of prep: Quick and straightforward to put together, with easy-to-follow instructions that suit cooks of all levels.
  • Suggestions: Several reviewers found the sauce too thin and watery; reducing the water to a couple of tablespoons helps create a stickier, more flavourful glaze. Adding sliced carrot, corn, or extra vegetables also rounds out the dish nicely.
  • Leftovers: At least one reviewer enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day, so it keeps well.
  • Portions: Feedback on serving size was mixed — some found portions generous, while others felt the meat-to-rice ratio was uneven and added extra protein or vegetables.
