EASy meal IDEA
Chilli & garlic fried rice This is a great way to use up odds and ends of veg, as well as leftover chicken.
- Add Cooks' Ingredients Wok Oil to awok on a medium high heat. Toss in some julienned carrot and ginger, sliced red pepper and red onion, and chopped salad onion (white parts). Stir-fry until the veg is starting to soften.
- Add some cold cooked rice and stir-fry for a few minutes. Toss in some leftover roast chicken, then add a handful of frozen peas and some pineapple chunks. Stir through half a jar of Chilli & Garlic sauce and continue stir-frying, scraping the rice from the base and sides of the wok as necessary.
- When everything is piping hot, divide the fried rice between bowls, topping each with a fried egg if you wish, and some lengths of salad onion green.
