Filipino Sausage Fried Rice

Filipino Sausage Fried Rice

Rice is the staple food of Filipinos, each and every meal is incomplete without it. Rice is always present on the table from breakfast to dinner and also, rice is used as the primary ingredient in most of the desserts and local delicacies in the Philippines.

You can cook rice in many ways and fried rice is just one of those. Fried rice is always the first option or choice for filipino typical  breakfast since we highly honor the most important meal of the day. That is why selling all-day breakfast meals like Tapsilog (Beef strips, Fried rice and Sunny-side-up), Longsilog (Filipino Sausage, Rice and Sunny-side-up) and Tocilog (Sweet cured pork, Fried rice and Sunny-side-up) is one  profitable food business in the country.

On that point are no strict rules in cooking fried rice, you can actually use and put any ingredients like finely chopped meats and veggies as you require. As long as they do not overpower the main ingredient which is rice, then everything will turn out just fine.

Today, I chose to use Filipino Sausage to mix with my fried rice, put some scrambled egg and viola! A quick and easy breakfast for my kids.
