This is one of my favorite go-to dishes when cooking for a large crowd, especially family gatherings. Fried rice and chow mein are a must have at most West Indian events. It feeds many and goes a long way. Fried rice is quite versatile as well; there are so many ways to change it up. My mom adds different vegetables and a combination of proteins depending on what she has on hand.

I suppose the Guyanese version of fried rice is different because of the inclusion of bora beans and Chinese five spice. It has quite a unique taste and the bora beans give it a nice crunch as well. This fried rice comes together quickly once you have all the ingredients prepped and ready to go.


Start by prepping all your vegetables. Cooking fried rice is a quick process so having everything ready is essential. For the vegetables, you'll need some diced carrots, chopped bora beans, and shredded cabbage. For the flavors, you'll need onions, garlic, grated ginger, Chinese five-spice powder, soy sauce, mushroom sauce, oyster sauce, and scallions for garnish.

1 ¾ cup extra-long grain white rice
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup chopped bora beans (Chinese long beans)
