Chinese Fried Rice
Ingredients
Makes 3 to 4 servings.
** Stir Fry Ingredients **
2 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil
225g (8oz) Cooked long grain rice
75g (3oz) Smoked lean bacon, finely diced
75g (3oz) Peeled prawns
2 size 3 eggs, beaten
100g (4oz) Fresh or frozen peas, blanched
6 Spring Onions

Instructions
** Procedure **
1) Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok, until just smoking.
Stir in the rice and stir fry for 1 minute, then add the bacon and prawns.
Continue to cook for a further 5 minutes over a high heat.
2) Stir in the beaten eggs, peas and spring onions, and cook for a further
two minutes. Season to taste.
3) Serve piping hot, garnished with spring onion tassels.
Note: For best results, slightly undercook the rice.
This will stop the whole thing from becoming a slodgy mess.
