When I got married, one of the first “exotic” dishes I made was fried rice from a Betty Crocker cookbook. I thought about this because I had a little leftover rice, scallions and ham in the fridge. This recipe will appeal to those who have only one pan and/or can’t be bothered to wash more than one cooking vessel.
Easy Fried Rice
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 or 2 scallions, sliced
1 cup cooked rice
2 eggs, beaten
1/3 cup cooked diced ham or any other leftover cooked meats
1 – 2 tbsp soy sauce
Soften the scallions a bit in the oil. Add the rice and stir cooking for 2-3 minutes. Push the rice to the side of the pan, add the eggs and softly scramble. When the eggs are set, mix with the rice, add the diced ham and drizzle with the soy sauce, stirring to blend and heat.
That is simple! I’ve no idea why I haven’t done a recipe for fried rice yet… perhaps this weekend!
I had forgotten about this recipe. I probably haven’t done it for maybe 10-12 years. Glad I remembered 🙂
As am I! 😀
A good old stand by – a firm favourite!
Looks great. Exactly how I do by pushing the rice to the side. Saves washing two pans!
When I first made this recipe I thought I was oh so gourmet 🙂
