The Saga of Leftovers

When my new hubby makes rice, he makes enough for a small army.  We eat as much as we can but there is always some left over.

So, to make good use of this rice I make big batches of fried rice!  This recipe can be adapted to anything in your fridge and freezer, and the way I make it, only has a few teaspoons of oil.

Fried Rice
Ingredients:
Cooked rice (Day old works great!)
Coriander
Soy Sauce
Sesame Oil
Vegetable or Olive oil
1 egg for every 2 cups of rice, beaten
Mix ins- cooked chicken (I cook it up with soy sauce, all spice, other Asian seasonings), frozen peas, carrots, stir fry veggies, lunch meat broken into pieces, any cooked meat you have in your fridge, onion is good!

1. Drizzle about 2 tsp oil into a large frying pan or wok.  Add 1 tsp sesame oil and onion.  Heat over medium heat, add any meat or frozen mix ins and cook until warm through.  Add rice, breaking up and drizzling with soy sauce until it is light brown in color.  Mix all ingredients well.

2.  Once all ingredients are hot and rice is well mixed and broken up, add egg and stir.  Make sure that egg coats the rice, but is also cooked in little chunks.  Taste, add more soy sauce or coriander to taste.

Enjoy!
