Ingredients​

  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 onion , finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves , minced
  • 120 g bacon , chopped (or use ham)
  • 1 – 1 1/2 cups diced vegetables , fresh or frozen . I use corn kernels and peas.
  • 2 cups (packed) cooked White rice made the day before and refrigerate
  • 3 eggs, whisked
  • 3/4 cup shallots sliced

SAUCE:​

  • 1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine
  • 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil , optional
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper

Instructions​

  • Heat oil – Heat about 1 1/2 tbsp oil in a wok or 2 tbsp oil in a wok or skillet over high heat until smoking.
  • Add onion, garlic and bacon. Cook until bacon is light golden – about 1 1/2 minutes.
  • Add vegetables (still frozen is fine). Cook for 2 minutes so they defrost and water evaporates.
  • Add rice and Sauce ingredients. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes until liquid evaporates.
  • Scramble egg – Shove rice to the side of the wok / skillet. Add 1/2 tbsp oil into the cleared space, shift wok so the heat is centred over the cleared space. Pour in egg then scramble – cook it through properly, don't "soft scramble".
  • Serve – Add shallots then stir the egg into the rice. Remove from heat and serve immediately!
