Fried Rice

Fried Rice                    about 6 servings
3 eggs
1T. water
1 T. butter
2 -3 T. oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped or grated
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped (or use garlic powder)
4 c. cooked, cold white rice
4 T. soy sauce
1 t. sesame oil (you could omit but is best with)
1⁄2 t. pepper
2 green onions, finely chopped (optional)

In a small bowl beat the eggs with water.
Melt the butter in a large skillet or a wok over medium heat or until sizzling.
Add in eggs and leave flat for about 2 minutes or until cooked through; remove and chop up.
Heat oil in the same skillet; add in onion and saute until softened (about 3-4 minutes, adding in the garlic the last 2 minutes of cooking time). If adding carrots add them here.
Add in cold rice, soy sauce, sesame oil and black pepper (if adding ham or peas-add them here), stir & fry tossing continuously for about 5 minutes (adding in more soy sauce and black pepper if needed).
Stir in the egg and green onion.

Chopped cooked ham or chicken is a great addition.....could also add frozen peas or finely chopped carrots
