Take the butternut squash (stem and bottom removed) and make noodles using a spiralizer. I didn’t bother to seed the squash, so I was careful to remove the seeds when I got to the bottom of the squash on the spiralizer.
Take the butternut squash noodles and chop them in a food processor until it turns into small bits.
Over medium high heat, place the olive oil into a large saute pan.
Once the pan is hot, place the onions in the pan.
Add garlic and butternut squash once the onions start to become translucent. Stir frequently for about 4 to 5 minutes
Add the zucchini and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add in the pepper, mung bean sprouts, and green onions and let cook for 2 minutes.
Add the egg and stir to make sure that the egg is evenly distributed.
Once the egg is cooked, add soy sauce, oyster sauce, five spice powder, sesame oil, and white pepper in the rice. Stir to mix the spices and turn off the heat. Add more soy sauce to the rice if you need to.
Notes
The ground white pepper is optional. I just like the taste of it in Chinese cooking.
Add some sesame seeds for more pizzazz.
I didn’t bother to whisk the egg before adding it to the dish. I never do when I am making fried rice.
