Fried Rice

Fried rice is a simple all-in-one dish which is really easy to put together. If you have any leftover meat from last night's dinner, throw those into your fried rice, add some vegetables or egg etc and you'll get a complete meal! I started "scavenger cooking" when I was young and would search my mum's fridge for scraps of ingredients and would use whatever I could find to make this dish =p

Here's a rough guide on how I cooked fried rice:



Ingredients:
1 bowl cooked rice
ginger (cut into strips)
red onion (diced)
carrot (diced)
long beans (cut into small pieces)
fish cake (cut into strips)
1 egg (beaten)
light soya sauce
white pepper
cooking oil

1) Heat up some oil in the wok. Pour in beaten egg and fry an omelette. The omelette can be cut into small pieces.

2) Using the oil left over from frying the egg (add more if needed), fry the ginger strips, red onion for a few minutes until fragrant. Add in carrot, long beans, fish cake to the wok and fry for a few more minutes.

3) Add cooked rice and the pieces of omelette to the wok and mix with the other ingredients. Add light soya sauce and white pepper to taste.
