Very Good and Simple!! So happy I finally found a "stir fried rice" recipe that doesn't require millions of steps and is made with stuff I usually have on hand. I loved this recipe(although, I didn't add the mint leaves)! You could also add any cooked meats to it afterward. Thanks for sharing. Made for Bargain Basement Tag-

I find cooking very relaxing and love to experiment. My food hero is Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall; the idea of growing your own veg and rearing your own animals in a free-range, organic way is very appealing. When not cooking I work from home for a tech company in Finland, love animals, old cars, travel and good restaurants! How I rate recipes: 5 * Recipe worked perfectly, no substitutes needed and family raved about it. 4 * Recipe worked well, a few substitutes were made to suit taste. Family loved it. 3 * Recipe worked fairly well, a few changes to technique or substitutions were needed. Family liked it. 2 * Recipe didn't work particularly well. It was edible but wouldn't cook again. 1* Recipe didn't work at all. It wasn't edible and we wouldn't cook again.
