Ingredients:
Rice | 2 cups | |
Eggs, beaten | 3 | |
Scallions/spring onions (white part + green part for garnish) | 2 shoots | |
Onion, finely chopped | 1 large | |
Garlic, minced | 5 cloves | |
Oil, divided (Peanut oil or Sunflower oil) | 4 Tbsp | |
Light Soy Sauce | 2-3 Tbsp | |
Salt | To taste (up to 1 tsp ) | |
Green peas (from a can or frozen) | ½ cup | |
Pepper powder (White or Black) | To taste |
Method:
- Cook the rice in 3 ¼ cup water. (I use Basmati or Thai Fragrant Rice). Once cooked, fluff up with a fork. Lay the rice, scattered on a tray, and place in the freezer to cool quickly (5-10 minutes). You can also place it under a ceiling fan.
- Beat the eggs with a large pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Heat oil(3Tbsp) in a wok till smoking.
- Saute the garlic and onion and scallion tops(whites).
- Do not allow to brown. Keep tossing till softened.
- Without reducing the heat: add the fluffed up rice, soy sauce and toss continuously till you separate all the grains and coat them with the oil. Add salt only if needed.
- Add the scallion greens and drained peas. Toss again.
- Move the rice to the sides of the wok.
- Heat a little amount of oil in the center. Quickly add the eggs to the center. Allow to start setting; then scramble away in the center of the rice till soft set. Mix in the rice from all sides and toss well. Turn off heat.
- Sprinkle pepper and cover the wok till serving.
- Serve hot/warm.
Easy Egg Fried Rice
Notes:
- Day-old rice is ideal for making fried rice.
- Peas may be substituted with carrots, corn or mixed veg.
- Peas from a can – drain well, or thawed frozen peas may be used. I prefer canned because frozen green peas tend to be too sweet. If using dried green peas, they must be soaked overnight and cooked before cooking fried rice.
