    Sorry PP. I've hunted for 10 minutes and I can't find it either.

    What I do is drain the cooked rice under cold running water, whisk up 4 eggs and start to cook them off first, then add the rice just before the eggs are completely scrambled and add some peas and prawns.

    All I do is boil rice and drain. Meanwhile beat a couple of eggs (depending on quantity of rice increase or reduce this amount). Add crushed clove of garlic (again depends on quantities).

    I use sesame oil as this has a nice flavour, pour teaspoon in wok and heat. Then add egg and garlic mixture and fry off like scrambled egg, add rice and then splash some soy sauce in. Heat and serve.

    I know some people like adding spring onions so just fry them off first then add egg mixture.

    My girls love it, especially if its put in a bowl and they serve themselves (they are 3 and 2). Cheap and filling,

    Not my recipe but one I have used for a couple of years now, I have NEVER tasted a better home made egg fried rice recipe....

    Let me know how you get on and one tip, we usually get Asda own brand Oyster sauce which is thick and sweet. The other weekend we ended up with one of those authentic Chinese brands and the sauce was very thin and not sweet at all, didn't taste half as nice!!

    Enjoy

    EGG FRIED RICE
    OK LISTEN UP

    THIS RECIPE CAME FROM A YOUNG CHINESE GIRL I USED TO KNOW


    FIRST YOU NEED BOILED RICE WHICH HAS BEEN LEFT TO GO COLD, THIS IS THE SECRET TO STOP IT GOING MUSHY IN THE PAN!!!

    GET YOURSELF A WOK OR LARGE FRYING PAN

    CHOP ONIONS SMALL AND FRY

    TAKE OUT OF WOK AND LEAVE ON A PLATE

    MIX A EGG WITH A LITTLE MILK AND FRY LIKE AN OMLETTE
    TAKE OUT OF PAN AND CUT INTO SMALL PIECES

    PUT ONIONS AND EGG BACK INTO WOK WITH A LITTLE OIL
    ADD BOILED RICE AND FRY TOGETHER
    ADD A SMALL AMOUNT OF LIGHT SOY SAUCE

    NOW HERES THE SECRET SHHHHH DONT TELL ANYONE

    ADD OYSTER SAUCE FROM A BOTTLE YOU CAN GET FROM ANY STORE
    NOT TOO MUCH AS TO OVER POWER

    FRY AND MIX WELL IN

    THERE YOU GO THE BEST FRIED RICE YOU WILL EVER MAKE

    ADD CHICKEN BEEF PORK WHATEVER AT THE SAME TIME AS ONIONS AND EGG IF YOU DONT WANT A PLAIN FRIED RICE DISH

    LET ME KNOW BUT I KNOW YOULL LOVE IT


    YOU CAN ADD PEAS IF YOU WANT

    The trick is to make sure your rice is cold, otherwise it will stick to pan and go lumpy.

    I love egg fried rice, but over protective hubby said I can't have it now I'm pregnant as the eggs are lightly cooked. Is he right?

    I normally cook the egg like scrambled egg, then add it to the rice, but I'm tempted to try the chinese girl's recipe above. It normally goes mushy as I use freshly boiled rice, but will try cold rice next time.
    Here I go again on my own....
