This classic egg fried rice is an excellent high-protein meal that makes clever use of kitchen staples. By using cold, leftover rice and a variety of colourful vegetables like peas and carrots, you can achieve a professional texture that rivals any takeaway. The addition of diced pork, chicken, or beef ensures a satisfyingly savoury finish that is both filling and nutritious.
Ideal for a quick midweek dinner or a post-workout lunch, this versatile dish can be adapted with whatever seasonal vegetables you have in the fridge. The secret to success lies in using a hot frying pan to slightly caramelise the rice grains, creating a lovely depth of flavour. Serve it steaming hot for a comforting, homemade alternative to your favourite Chinese-style side dish.

Ingredients for Fried Rice
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 eggs, beaten
1 bunch spring onions, roughly chopped
150g leftover pork, chicken, or beef, diced
130g frozen peas and carrots, thawed (plus any leftover vegetables you have on hand)
750g cold cooked white or brown rice
4 tablespoons soy sauce

How to make Fried Rice
Back to contentsIn a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat.
Add the eggs and spring onions. Cook, breaking up the eggs with a spoon until they are lightly browned.
Stir in the meat, vegetables, rice, and the remaining oil. Increase heat slightly and cook until the rice is crispy, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce with 60ml of water. Pour the mixture over the rice.
Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the rice has absorbed all the liquid, 3 to 5 minutes. 6 Season with the salt and pepper and serve, with extra soy sauce on the side.
