Egg Fried Rice

Be careful when pre-cooking the rice. Do it early enough for it to cool down but not too early or it will turn crispy. Unless you like that I guess.

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp, sesame/nut oil

• 1 or 2 eggs, beaten (I like it eggy but if you prefer less just use 1)

• 170g, long-grain rice, cooked and cooled

• 1tsp salt

• 1/2 tbsp soy sauce

• 1/2 onion, finely sliced
  

This makes 2 side portions. For 2 full portions (as a meal) change quantities of the below and maybe add some pre cooked meat:

• 250g rice

• Definitely 2 eggs

• 1 full onion
  

Method

1. Cook rice in advance and cool. It helps to spread it on a plate.

2. Heat oil in a wok, on high heat until hot.

3. Fry of onions until soft.

4. Pour beaten egg into wok, stirring constantly.

5. When egg has cooked a little into a scramble (30-45 seconds) add in the cold boiled rice.

6. Fry for 6 minutes, pressing out any lumps.

7. Add salt and soy sauce and fry for another 2 minutes.
