With not much left in the fridge, this is tonight's early dinner...
FAST FRIED RICE
OMELETTE
2 eggs .. beat with a fork and add a tablespoon of water
cook lightly in a hot pan in your choice of oil, then set aside in a bowl
RICE
onion
zucchini
carrot
leftover cold boiled/steamed rice (I use basmati or brown)
1/2 cup veg or chicken stock
S & P
Very finely chop all of the veg and cook over low heat with a splash of oil, then add the water/stock and put a lid on to soften for a few minutes... add the rice and mix through.. salt and pepper to taste... add the chopped up omelette and a handful of frozen or fresh peas
That's it, fifteen minutes for prep and cooking time, max!!!
I always cook too much rice for this reason, it's so easy to reheat for the next couple of days or to make fried rice .. and if I don't use it, my Jacky boy dog loves it with his dinner too!
Happy Days ... vegetables, protein and carbs to fill up little bellies, my kind of comfort food.
Looks so good. A great way to use up left over rice
