About Shanghai fried rice

Shanghai Fried Rice is a flavorful and hearty dish originating from Chinese cuisine, specifically inspired by the culinary traditions of the Shanghai region. This dish typically combines steamed white or jasmine rice stir-fried with tender pieces of protein such as chicken, shrimp, or pork, alongside fresh vegetables like scallions, carrots, peas, and sometimes cabbage. Egg is scrambled into the mix, adding extra texture and richness. It is seasoned with soy sauce and a touch of oyster or hoisin sauce, imparting a savory and slightly sweet flavor profile. While Shanghai Fried Rice is rich in protein and provides energy-boosting carbohydrates, it can be high in sodium due to the soy sauce. Opting for brown rice and reducing added oils or sodium-based seasonings can enhance its nutritional value. This dish is a satisfying option when enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
