EGG-FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Cook the rice following pack instructions, then drain, spread it out to steam-dry and set aside.
• Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a large wok over a high heat, then add the onion and fry until lightly browned, around 5 mins. Add the rice, stir and toast for about 3 mins, then move to the side of the pan.
• Add the remaining oil, then tip in the egg mixture. Leave to cook a little, then mix in with the rice - stir vigorously to coat the grains or, if you prefer the egg chunkier, allow to set for a little longer before breaking up and stirring through. Tip into a serving bowl and scatter over the spring onion to serve.

FRIED EGGS

Steps:

• Fry the eggs: Place a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. When it begins to brown, crack 2 eggs, a distance apart, into the butter. Lower the heat, season them lightly with salt and cook 2 to 3 minutes or longer, if desired. Repeat with the remaining 2 eggs.
• More cooked: If you want your egg yolks cooked through, add a splash of water to the pans, cover and cook for 1 to 2 additional minutes. This steams the eggs. Alternatively, you can run the pans under the broiler for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
• A fried variation: Crack an egg in the pan to fry and add two additional yolks. The 3:1 white to yolk ratio makes for a higher protein, lower cholesterol egg. Fry according to above instructions.

Cook slowly until whites are completely set and yolks begin to thicken. , For eggs sunny-side up, cover pan and cook until yolks thicken, but are not hard. For basted eggs, spoon butter in pan over eggs while cooking. For over-easy eggs, carefully turn eggs to cook both sides but do not cover pan.
