Crispy Fried Rice

Today's menu! Crispy fried rice.
I took effort to take pictures of my cooking process!

Ingredients: Cooked rice, eggs, meat, veggies, onion, garlic, tomatoes.

Preparation:

1. Cook rice the night before (or few hours before) and keep them in the fridge. It will make the rice texture firm and well separated when fried.

2. Mix the prepared rice with an egg. This will give the rice a nice golden color when fried!
3. Prepare meat of your choice. I used minced pork this time. Sprinkle a little curry powder and salt to the meat, mix well. 4. Dice tomatoes into small pieces.
5. Dice onions and chop garlic.
6. Dice soaked mushrooms into small pieces, slice baby corns and celery thinly. You can use any veggie of your choice.
Cooking:

1. Stir fry garlic in oil 'til fragrant, add meat, mushrooms, baby corns and celery. Add a pinch of salt to taste. Put them all on a plate when you're done with stir frying.
2. Using the same pan and stir fry onions in oil 'til fragrant, add prepared rice, stir occasionally. When the rice becomes golden and crispy, add another egg to the pan and stir all together. Add a little salt to taste.
3. Add previously cooked meat and veggie, follow by diced tomatoes to the pan.We both enjoy this meal and Lg's always like to put ketchup on his fried rice. It tastes nice too! The fried rice is crispy and flavorful. Together with the crunchiness of tomatoes make this dish taste refreshing in every bite.
