Name: Egg Fried Rice

Ingredients:

• 4 large eggs, divided
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or canola, divided
• 1 cup diced red onion (about 1 small onion)
• 1 1/3 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
• 3 stalks of scallions, sliced
• 4 cups cooked brown jasmine rice
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (optional)

Instructions:

• Crack 3 eggs into a small bowl and beat them together.
• Beat the last egg in a separate bowl.
• Heat a large sauté pan with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Once the pan is hot, add the 3 beaten eggs and scramble them for about a minute.
• Transfer the eggs to a dish and turn off the heat.
• Wipe off the pan or wok with a kitchen towel.
• Drizzle the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil in the pan over medium-high heat.
• Add the onions and cook them for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Add the mixed vegetables and scallions and cook for another minute. Save some of the scallions (the dark green part) for garnish.
• Add the cooked rice into the pan or wok and cook for a few minutes until the rice is heated through. Break apart any large clumps of rice.
• Pour the remaining beaten egg over the rice and stir to coat the rice with the egg.
• Cook for another minute.
• Add the soy sauce and sesame oil (if using) and stir to distribute the sauces.
• Add the scrambled eggs and stir to mix again.
• Top with the scallion garnish and serve immediately.

Comments: 1/17/2019 - I only used 1.5 cups of pre-cooked white rice. I cooked the rice and mid-day and let it dry out during the afternoon. I used a yellow onion instead of a red onion. It fed us with two servings each.
5/5/2025 - Here is today’s list of ingredients:

• 4 large eggs and 2 eggs
• 2 tablespoons and 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3/4 diced large red onion
• Vegetables

  • 1 cup frozen boccoli cuts, thawed
  • 15-oz can baby corn
• 3 stalks of scallions, sliced
• 4 cups cooked white rice. This is a LOT of rice!
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
