Easy Peezy Egg Fried Rice

Recipe #303065 | 15 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 4 -6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Donnalou86

This is a simple and fun to make Chinese dish, and tastes absolutely delicious.There are quite a few ingredients but they are so easy to throw together and you can get them all from your local supermarket. I love impressing my friends by making my own Chinese food. This recipe is based on a recipe by Ken Hom but I have modified it a little.

Ingredients

  • 400 ml cooked long-grain rice (enough to fill a measuring jug up to 400ml level)
  • large egg
  • tablespoons sesame oil
  • tablespoons ground nut oil
  • teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 50 g bean sprout
  • 50 g water chestnut
  • tablespoons chopped spring onion
  • 50 g frozen peas (thawed and drained)
  • 50 g chopped ham
  • tablespoons soy sauce
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Prepare your ingredients by slicing the water chestnuts, chopping the spring onions and ham. Then arrange your ingredients on a plate or in bowls ready. This makes it easier when coming to the actual stir frying section as you can just grab your ingredients.
    2. 2
      Beat the eggs together with the sesame oil and set aside.
    3. 3
      Place your wok over a high heat and add the groundnut oil. Heat until very hot (almost smoking).
    4. 4
      Add the cooked rice and stir fry for 3 minutes.
    5. 5
      Stir in the ham, peas, salt, pepper and soy sauce.Then stir fry for another minute or two.
    6. 6
      Add the beaten egg and sesame oil mix and stir through. Keep moving and stir fry for 1 minute. This should at first go kind of shiny and gloopy looking at this stage, then the eggs start to cook and distribute throughout the rice.
    7. 7
      Add the bean sprouts, water chestnuts and spring onions. Stir fry for a further 2 minutes then serve with your favorite Chinese dish -- or on it's own! Delicious!
