Method

Step by step.

  1. 01

    Prepare the rice

    Break up the cold rice with your hands or a fork so no large clumps remain.

  2. 02

    Cook the eggs

    Heat a wok or large frying pan. Add a little oil, pour in beaten eggs and stir quickly until nearly set. Set aside.

  3. 03

    Fry the vegetables

    Add the remaining oil and fry the carrot, peas, garlic and white parts of the spring onions for 2–3 minutes.

  4. 04

    Fry the rice

    Increase the heat, add the rice and stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until hot and the grains are separate.

  5. 05

    Season

    Fold in the eggs, soy and sesame oil. Season with white pepper, top with spring onion and serve with lime.

Asaad Food's tips

Small details, better rice.

01

Cold rice is key: if you have no leftovers, spread freshly cooked rice on a tray and chill completely.

02

Cook in batches if your pan is small so the rice fries rather than steams.
