Egg Fried Rice - Easy! image

Another from the BBC's Chinese Food Made Easy. This is the first successful egg fried rice I've ever cooked. Easy, quick and tasy. Serves four as a side dish. If you don't have groundnut (peanut) oil, use a clean oil, such as vegetable oil instead of olive oil, which is too strong. The white pepper is important for bringing out the flavours; don't be tempted to replace with the trendier black pepper, because it will add another flavour, rather than enhancing the existing ones.

This recipe is too bland for my taste. I'm going to try adding some more spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my rice turned out mushy. I'm going to try again and see if I can get it right.

I'm not a huge fan of egg fried rice, but this recipe changed my mind. The rice was fluffy and flavorful, and the eggs were cooked perfectly. I especially liked the addition of green onions and soy sauce.
