Steps:
- Leftover cooked and cooled rice works best, and could be made earlier in the day and refrigerated until cold. Use wet fingers to separate the rice grains.
- Heat 1 Tablespoon of oil in a wok or frying pan. Beat the eggs in a small bowl and add to the pan when the oil is hot.
- Stir gently with a wooden spoon just until cooked. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
- Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan. Add peas, carrots and ham and saute for several minutes. Remove to the bowl with the eggs.
- Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan over medium high heat. When the oil is hot, add the rice and toss every 30 seconds until it's lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken stock, soy sauce and green onion and toss to combine. Return eggs and veggies to the pan.
- Add more soy sauce, to taste, if desired. Serve immediately.

EASY HAM FRIED RICE
This inst your traditional fried rice, but it is a great recipe, using another recipe that is posted on here for soy sauce, Recipe #111373, which I used for low sodium content. That is probably why it doesn't taste like most fried rice, because soy sauce has A LOT of salt in it. This recipe makes a lot!

Steps:
- Put 3 tbs oil in a large pan and heat up.
- Once heated add in cold rice and let sizzle and brown, stirring occasionally. This usually takes about 10 minutes.
- Once done add in the rest of the oil, onion, garlic, carrot, peas, and ham, mixing it all in together and letting this cook for 5 minutes.
- Then push rice to the side of pan and drop in the eggs and scramble them, making sure the pieces are small.
- Once eggs are done, incorporate them into the rest of the fried rice and add in the soy sauce, mixing well.
- Let cook for another 5 minutes, and serve.
Tips:
- Use day-old rice. Day-old rice is less moist and will fry up better than freshly cooked rice.
- Chop your ingredients evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Use a well-seasoned wok or skillet. A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the rice from sticking.
- Cook the rice over high heat. This will help it fry up quickly and evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet. If you overcrowd the wok or skillet, the rice will not cook evenly.
- Stir the rice frequently. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from sticking.
- Add the sauce and vegetables towards the end of cooking. This will help prevent the vegetables from becoming overcooked.
- Serve the fried rice immediately. Fried rice is best served hot and fresh.
