Fried Rice

This fried rice recipe is from our Indonesian friends, and became an instant favorite! The spice level, when made according to this recipe, is not super spicy but is probably close to a medium heat level. You can make it more mild by using only 1 packet of the seasoning mix instead of 2 (or for a very mild variation, omit the spice packet all together and use 2ish tbsp Braggs Liquid Aminos instead). I think you should really give the spice packet a try! You might end up loving it as much as we do!
Fried Rice
8 eggs, scrambled
1 cup (pick one): chicken, shrimp, (or bacon 😁)
2 tbsp olive oil
12 cups cooked brown rice
2 packets Nasi Goreng spice mix (or 2ish tbsp Braggs Liquid Aminos)
1 cup frozen peas and carrots mix
Scramble eggs and set aside. Cook meat and set aside. Pour olive oil in wok, and over medium heat, combine cooked rice and nasi goreng, stirring until paste is evenly dispersed and incorporated. Pour frozen veggies over rice and stir in for 5 min. Add eggs and meat back in and give a final stir! Enjoy!

Boy, Spurgeon looks just like his mama!!!

[@msch7620]

Content With Christine He looks like his grandpa.

[@mdmd-zc8qg]

no he looks like Ben for sure

[@kellymcfalls1458]

@Joanna Martin I think he looks like his mom and Ivy looks like her cousin felicity and not sure who Henry looks like maybe a combo of mom and dad

[@omowhanre]

I think that it's soo cool that you feed your kids good from the different parts of the world and encourage them to try new foods. They will be able to eat at many tables. What a blessing!

[@meganelaine3178]

Fatima Muhammed I agree

[@cricketgal]

Agreed!! 👍🏼

[@motherthirteen]

Well since she's from a country full of immigrants of course she has a wordy pallet

[@AlbertaRose94]

She went on a lot of mission trips as a kid and discovered a variety of foods.

[@SophieJackson1993]

treena mcdoodle No, she really doesn’t because they’re in the cult known as the Quiverful movement. Although they’re in a worldly country, they’re extremely sheltered and it’s very sad. I just hope the kids of Michelle and Jim’s cult genes have diluted through them & that they’ll live a happier life.

[@missionhill7863]

"So it's fried" lol love his little input

[@throughfaithandgrace2970]

Mrs Frizzle hahahaha he’s so cute

[@emmarose4234]

I totally imagine Ms. Frizzle saying something like that.

[@Lavenderbaby]

It amazes me that at such a young age babies are able to comprehend what you’re saying to them! Like at 6:02 Jessa says that Ivy dropped some and she looks over the edge to see!!!

[@sharonjack7239]

Spurgeon saying he'll kiss Henry's hurt elbow is so compassionate!! Ivy looking down at floor for spilt food, so sweet!!!!

[@rebecca2627]

Spurgeon saying he’ll kiss Henry’s hurt elbow 😭

[@Ariannauk1]

The kids are soooo cute , a cool tip is to refrigerate the rice overnight it makes it way better x

[@1939mouko]

Nasi Goreng was a staple in my home growing up, I’m half Indonesian

[@SkiesVibrant]

Dearest Jessa. My family and I tried your fried rice and it was deeeelicious. Just one thing. the packet of NASI GORENG does have MSG. In addition it also has fermented shrimp in tiny amounts. Many people are allergic to shell fish. God bless you for putting Christ first in your lives. You are wonderful role model.

[@autumnmhughes]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, I have been looking for one. Also thank you for keeping it real. I love watching you interact with your kids while you're cooking no matter what's going on.

[@karenbass3507]

Ivy- "you dropped some." Looks for it! Cute!

[@donna3465]

Karen Bass I know! That was precious! She’s a smart little girl!

[@kerriecarr6287]

Doesnt Ivy get her own dish ?

[@margaretmayberry7766]

We like to put shrimp and green onions in ours its great

[@donna3465]

That looks delicious! I’m always so impressed by how you and Ben parent your children. Honestly, it warms my heart. #parentinggoals

[@Zania16ify]

Oh my word this is the good stuff! I grew up a missionary kid in Southeast Asia for quite some time. This rice dish is traditionally called "nasi goreng". There are many different ways to make it though! Well done. God bless you all!

[@lilivee1360]

I love your cooking tutorials. It’s literally made for me. Fast, minimal dirty dishes, straightforward and toddlers eat it. You need a cooking show!

[@rubyrose20159]

I love fried rice. It’s literally fool proof and you can throw almost anything in there, especially left over meat and veg. I love seeing how other people make their fried rice! 😍 if you have kimchi, throw some of that in there with the kimchi juice and a spoon of sugar! 😋

[@emmarose4234]

“DADDY! The fried rice is READY!” -Spurgeon ❤️

[@sUjU91]

I like how you guys pray before a meal, in my family we never did that.

[@lindapineiro7179]

Love your recipe videos Jessa, I know you’re a mom of 3 so quick meals are very helpful for someone like me as well.

[@nikitabhuyan1947]

Makes me so happy to see all of these diverse meals being cooked!! Sending love from Phoenix!

[@Imaginehello7799]

That is like a breakfast/dinner combo and looks delicious

[@novel-teadee3410]

Ooo... I need to try those packets. My entirr family makes a breakfast friend rice with bacon, scrambled eggs, garlic (powder or minced), a little salt, soy sauce, and parsley flakes. I like to make an egg over easy and lay it on top 👌 My grandfather was stationed in Hawaii sometime during or after WWII, and I believe the recipe came from his time spent there. We eat it for any meal. Delicious, and no spice for Henry. Lol he's so cute!

[@sammospencer8641]

I love one pot or one pan meals. Gotta try this some time.

[@sandymcdonald6t1]

This looks amazing Jessa! I will have to try this.

[@feminotlady7208]

Love these meal ideas! I always have a hard time meal planning without making the same things over and over

[@bonniefertig1642]

I hope Jesse loves and treats Henry as good as the other two. I had two boys and a girl. My sons were two and a half years apart. My second son was a difficult child to raise but now he is amazing. He is my best friend. Don’t worry Jessa, Henry will grow out of his grumpiness . My husband and I had the hardest time finding a babysitter for my youngest son.. Even my mom and dad hated watching him. He cried all the time as a kid. One of my friends told me her second child was the same way and when she became an adult she was wonderful. My friend was right.

[@ashleym4396]

This looks delicious! Love how you’re real life goes on while you cook! Bc that’s exactly how it goes 😆😘 God bless you guys! Thanks for sharing

[@hilarygarstang5066]

[@BB-wj8dv]

We just had a home cooked fried rice dinner in our house last night, though our recipe comes from a Chinese family. I would like to give the seasonings you mentioned a try one of these times. We usually can't eat packaged seasonings at our house due to MSG giving most of us migraines. Thank y'all for sharing.

[@Mellymellmells78]

Love it! I am half Chinese-Indonesian and my mom always made it with bacon too! Great video 🤗

[@suzi7715]

Awww...Jessa, your babies are so adorable!!! I LOVE watching your you tube videos! Keep 'em coming. :)

[@weafybeafy]

Ordered these packets from amazon and our family absolutely loved the fried rice

[@ladedalounge]

So enjoy your channel. My Christian sister introduced me to I think it was 14 and counting at the time, during Thanksgiving. Been watching your entire family since. I am not Christian (I was but my own reasons spiritual now), but your show reminded me of real family even with the unfortunate family issues revealed. I am your mother's age and I have to tell you, she looks fabulous for raising so many children. God bless. I am going to try this!!!

[@brooke1685]

Thank you for all the content lately it's been great!

[@LydiaALau]

Jessa your recipes are LIFEEE. I recently got married and although I consider myself an alright cook, I definitely need some inspiration and easy recipes with meat included. I don't have experience cooking meat as I was following a mostly plant-based diet for a long time but I'm married now and I need to feed my man haha

[@jen-rn8nl]

She has so much patience with her kinds it’s so beautiful

[@oliviaburke2294]

This looks really good. I usually don’t end up making the recipes in the videos I watch but this one might actually make.

[@JuiceboxCallaghan]

I’m from Hawaii and we love putting spam in our fried rice! The saltiness goes great with the rice!

[@donnaharrison7947]

Oh this looks yummy jessa. Thank you .I also enjoyed cooking and eating my tikka masala so thank you again for another great recipe. 💞

[@thesingingalto5825]

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

Awwww the way Spurgie covered his eyes when praying

[@photosbydeb01]

I needed this inspiration right now! I'm in a rutt of not knowingwhat to make for dinner. I also have tons of brown rice and am getting sick of it. This was quick and easy and i looked up 'fried rice seasoning blends' since i don't have the packets. Bonus: I was able to use up leftovers from the fridge too!! Thanks Jess for keeping it simple.
