Fried Rice in less than 5 minutes

This recipe is again one of those that doesn’t require any recipe.

The other day I had some leftover white ‘sticky’ rice in the fridge. One thing I really don’t enjoy is wasted food..when there are so many hungry people in the world. I am doing my best to re-purpose the leftovers into a new dish.

I always have some frozen veggies in the fridge. Not that I use them daily, I keep them just in case..when I run out of fresh produce but still need to feed my fam with healthy food.

So here’s what you do:

1. Make scrumbled eggs in a non-stick skillet. I used 3 eggs.
2. Pour a bit of cooking oil in a wok or pan. I use non-stick pan. Heat up the oil and stir-fry frozen mixed veggies (approximately 1/2 cup). If you have fresh ones, chop them up. Carrots, corn, peas (all together or a combination of 2) and stir fry for a couple of minutes. Then add white rice (around 2 cups) and spices (garlic powder, ginger powder), pour soy sauce and stir everything up. This is another minute or two. Keep stirring and mixing so that nothing sticks to the bottom.
3. Add scrambled eggs into the same pan with rice and veggies and mix well.

Here you go, hot meal from leftover rice in less than 5 minutes.

If you don’t have leftover rice, cook some using package instructions.
