Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 400 ml cooked long-grain rice (enough to fill a measuring jug up to 400ml level)
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons ground nut oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 50 g bean sprouts
• 50 g water chestnuts
• 2 tablespoons chopped spring onions
• 50 g frozen peas (thawed and drained)
• 50 g chopped ham
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Recipe

• 1 prepare your ingredients by slicing the water chestnuts, chopping the spring onions and ham. then arrange your ingredients on a plate or in bowls ready. this makes it easier when coming to the actual stir frying section as you can just grab your ingredients.
• 2 beat the eggs together with the sesame oil and set aside.
• 3 place your wok over a high heat and add the groundnut oil. heat until very hot (almost smoking).
• 4 add the cooked rice and stir fry for 3 minutes.
• 5 stir in the ham, peas, salt, pepper and soy sauce.then stir fry for another minute or two.
• 6 add the beaten egg and sesame oil mix and stir through. keep moving and stir fry for 1 minute. this should at first go kind of shiny and gloopy looking at this stage, then the eggs start to cook and distribute throughout the rice.
• 7 add the bean sprouts, water chestnuts and spring onions. stir fry for a further 2 minutes then serve with your favorite chinese dish -- or on it's own! delicious!
