Eat: 02

Round two of the "Eat" series! Today's dish: fried rice! Although I have an undying love for Thai and Indian food, I am not so fond of Chinese food. But fried rice is the one exception and my go-to dish if I am ever at a Chinese restaurant with friends. Where I live in Switzerland it is very hard to find a restaurant that serves anything other than Italian food, so it is nice to change it up a bit and incorporate some other ethnicities of food every once in a while.

Simple Fried Rice 
egg
soy sauce
rice
olive oil
veggies

boil a pot of water, then add the rice.  Follow the package instructions for cooking time.
(You should use about a 1:2 ratio of rice/water)
crack egg in small bowl and whisk with fork
add a little bit of olive oil to warm pan and cook egg (like an omelet)
chop up veggies & cooked egg
combine rice, veggies, and egg in hot pan with a bit of olive oil
stir mixture and add soy sauce to taste

Tips--
+ I used olive oil because that is what I had on hand, but any kind of cooking oil would work just as well
+ I used basmati rice because (again) that is what I had, but minute rice would work just as well. Just keep in mind that the cooking instructions will differ.
+ I mostly eat vegetarian while I am at school, but feel free to add in some diced chicken to the dish.

Happy [belated] Chinese New Year and Buon Appetito!
