Preparation of the rice

We begin by cooking the rice until it is al dente, rather hard. This point is important since at
the end of the process the rice will have a moment of frying.

We put the casserole on the fire. Add the water and rice, all together.

When it starts to boil, leave the rice for about 4 minutes until the water evaporates. When we
see that there are no water bubbles on the surface of the rice, we lower the heat to 3
temperatures, neither the minimum nor the medium temperature, and cover the casserole.

We leave it like this for 14 minutes. Let rest. If you have doubts, be sure to watch the video
that I show you below. My recommendation is to cook the rice without salt. Then we are going
to add soy sauce that adds salt to the recipe, so that when combined with the rice it can give
rise to the bye being salty. You have to be careful with that.

Do not go overboard with cooking the rice, if it is very cooked, it will be too soft and it will not
serve us for the recipe. We reserve the rice.
Preparation

of the accompaniment of chaufa rice

Wash and chop the rest of the ingredients to have them ready when adding them to the wok.
We clean the chicken of possible traces of fat and cut it into cubes.

Wash and chop the red pepper and the Chinese onion. Peel and grate the ginger and reserve
it. We beat the eggs in a bowl and in a wok or, failing that, a frying pan. We heat two
tablespoons of sunflower oil. When it is very hot we make an omelette with the eggs. Remove
the tortilla, chop it up and reserve.

Add two more tablespoons of sunflower oil. Once it is very hot, we add the grated ginger and
the chopped chicken. If you want to add pieces of fresh sausage it is also great. In many areas
of Peru, you will find this rice with sausages.

We fry the meat until we see that it begins to brown. We withdraw and reserve.
