Instructions
-
Heat a large wok over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles on contact, add 1 teaspoon of oil and swirl the pan to coat the bottom.
-
Pour in the eggs and cook, stirring frequently, until the eggs are scrambled and lightly set. Transfer the eggs to an empty bowl. Wipe out the pan, if necessary, with a paper towel.
-
Add 1 tablespoon oil to the pan, then add the garlic, green onions, and vegetables. Cook for 30 seconds or longer, stirring frequently, until fragrant or until the vegetables are tender.
-
Add the kale and salt. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 1 to 2 minutes until the kale is wilted and tender. Transfer the contents of the pan to your bowl of eggs.
-
Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the pan. Pour in the coconut flakes and cook, stirring frequently, for 30 seconds until the flakes are lightly golden.
-
Add the rice to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes until the rice is hot.
-
Pour the contents of the bowl back into the pan, breaking up the scrambled egg with a spatula or spoon. Once warmed, remove the pan from the heat.
-
Add the tamari, chili garlic sauce, and juice of ½ of lime. Stir to combine. Taste, and add another teaspoon of tamari or a pinch of salt, as needed.
-
Slice the remaining ½ of lime into wedges, then divide the fried rice into individual bowls.
-
Garnish with wedges of lime and a sprinkling of torn cilantro leaves, with jars of tamari, chili garlic sauce, and red pepper flakes. Serve, and enjoy!
