asian pear FRIED RICE.
We've been having fun experimenting with our harvest of Asian Pears.... a few days ago I had some leftover rice I wanted to use it up. So I made a fried rice with baked tofu, edamame, carrots, broccoli and ASIAN PEARS instead of water chestnuts....the slight hint of sweetness from the pears was fabulous!
