chinese fried rice!!!!!
cook up your rice, then put it in the fridge until it's very cold (this is important unless you've been looking for an excuse to buy a new set of cookware).
in the meantime, slice the chicken into thin strips diagonally across the grain.
prepare your ingredients: frozen veg (whatever kinds you like except
brussels sprouts and okra don't work too well), onions, soya sauce, beef OXO packets (not the liquid), an egg (slightly beaten), ginger (fresh or ground), some
brown sugar, and a bit of oil.
start by combining the soya sauce, ginger, brown sugar, and beef OXO in a bowl. taste it, then add more ginger if it's not got enough of a kick or more sugar if it's not quite sweet enough for your taste.
heat the oil over moderate-high heat, then cook the onions and chicken meat until the chicken is no longer pink and the onion are ever so slightly golden.
add the veggies, stir constantly until they're hot all the way through (or cooked if you're using raw).
drain well.
add the cold rice and KEEP STIRRING while you add teh soya mix and the beaten egg. keep stirring until the rice is all hot and the egg is cooked.
eat.
enjoy.
