Chinese Mixed Fried Rice

One of my favourites, a complete meal. This ones really a very easy quick recipe and filling too.

Serves 4

• Ingrdients
  2 cups rice
  4 cups water
  1/2 cup cooked carrot & peas
  1/2 cup cooked chicken
  1/2 cup cooked prawns
  1/2 cup cooked egg
  1 tbs. soya sauce
  3 tbs. butter
  2 tsp. lemon juice
  2 tbs. oil
  Salt to taste
• Preparation
  Boil the water and  keep it aside.
  Put the rice in water and let it soak for 25 minutes.
  Drain the water out completely.
  Melt butter in a wok and add rice.
  Fry the rice.
  When the rice starts cracking, add boiled water, lemon juice & salt.
  After the water has dried and the rice is cooked well, remove the wok from the fire.
  Heat oil in a pan and add the cooked vegetables, chicken, prawns and egg.
  Add Soya sauce and stir for 5 minutes.
  Add the rice & mix well.
  Serve hot.

Tip: Remember soy sauce adds a salty taste so when you add salt keep it on the lower side.
Tip: If you have cooked rice lying around from earlier you can really save time by skippig the rice soaking and cooking bit.
