Ingredients
- 5 small brown organic eggs
- Diced ham *
- Chopped green onions (reserve some for garnish)
- Cooking oil
- Salt
- 4 cups of cooked brown or white rice **
- Furikake (most Asian markets) ***
Notes:
*Avoid the deli-style ham. I like this cured ham from Trader Joe's- it's thick so they look like tiny cubes.
** It's ideal to use leftover (1-day old) rice when making fried rice
*** Avoid the furikake with dried shrimp of fish if you don't like the seafood taste
Instructions
- Crack and beat eggs, add a pinch of salt to it
- In pan, cook the eggs and break them into small pieces
- Take eggs out when they're slightly still uncooked *
- Add oil to pan, and warm the ham
- Add the green onions and mix
- Take ham mixture out
- Add oil to pan and then rice
- Using a spatula, break rice apart until it's all broken up individually **
- Add the cooked eggs, ham, and green onions to rice, mix and warm
- Turn off heat and sprinkle Furikake generously in rice (until evenly distributed)
- Serve with green onions on top
Tips:
* Crack and beat eggs right before cooking for freshness
** If desired, cook rice until lightly brown for crunchiness
