Ingredients
- 3 cups chilled, day-old cooked jasmine rice
- 1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, green beans)
- 1 medium onion, finely diced

- 2 eggs, beaten
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp curry powder

Preparation Method
Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large pan or wok. Scramble the eggs quickly, then remove and set aside.

Add the mixed vegetables and curry powder. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Add the chilled rice to the pan, breaking up any clumps with a spoon.
