Fried Rice

This is a great way to use up leftover rice, which we always seem to have. Plus, it's really good!

3 cups cooked white rice

1 T AND 1 t soy sauce

2 t sugar

2 t cornstarch

salt and pepper

1 lb thinly cut pork chops (I use shredded chicken or no meat at all)

2 T oil

2 large eggs, beaten

1 bunch green onions or 1 medium onion

10 oz frozen peas (I just put however many look good)

Mix 1 T soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, salt and pepper in medium bowl. Add meat to soy sauce mixture and stir to combine. Set aside for 20 minutes at room temp or up to 24 hours, covered and refrigerated.

Heat 1 T oil in wok or large skillet until very hot. pour beaten eggs over bottom of pan and cook like a pancake, then break into small pieces. Remove and set aside.

Add remaining 1 T oil; heat until very hot. Add meat and stir-fry. Add onions and cook about 1 minute. Add peas, rice and soy sauce and eggs. Stir fry until heated through.
