Fried Rice

Fried Rice is such a simple dish i'm surprise so many asked for a recipe!! 
Fried rice is what my mom makes when there's a lot of left over rice from 
the previous night. Garlic, egg, and fish sauce are the basic ingredients, 
the rest is up to your imgination. Use a combination of ingredients for color!

Fried rice maybe eaten in place of white steamed rice, it may also be served 
alone on it's own, in this case add a lot more ingredients ...



Ingredients:

cold left over rice
chopped garlic
oil
fish sauce
white pepper 
eggs

optional ingredients: 

beans finely cut
peas
corn 
Chinese sausages
crab meat
carrot
char siew(red BBQ pork)
capsicum
ham
salted fish(pre fried)
or whatever else you find left in your fridge!


garnish:
spring onion

Method

1. 	Set fire on high, heat oil in wok and fry garlic till fragrant, 
add rice and fry till rice becomes loose.  Push rice aside, add oil 
in the emptied centre of wok and add eggs, scramble and cook 
briefly before mixing in the rice. Add in the other ingredients, 
when the ingredients are cooked, splash in fish sauce and add 
pepper to taste, sprinkle spring onions on top and serve hot.

Note:	I like to add ketchup and garlic chili sauce in my fried 
rice ... remember it's like making sandwiches, everyone has 
his own version.
