Ingredients

  • 160 g basmati rice
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 green pepper
  • 1/2 onion
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pinch salt

Method, step by step

  1. Cook the basmati rice and let it cool (day-old rice is ideal). Dice the onion, carrot, and green pepper small.
  2. Heat a large frying pan or wok with the olive oil over high heat. Stir-fry the onion, carrot, and pepper for 3 minutes.
  3. Add the cooked rice and stir-fry 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly so it toasts slightly.
  4. Make a well in the centre, add the beaten eggs, and stir until set.
  5. Mix everything together, adjust the salt, and serve.
