Prep time: 15 minServes: 4

Simple everyday food that doesn't demand much from the wine — a crisp white or rosé works, but honestly most things do here.

Ingredients

  • 600g cold cooked rice (day-old is best)
  • 4 eggs
  • 150g peas (frozen)
  • 2 carrots, finely diced
  • 4 spring onions, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp neutral oil
  • White pepper

Method

  1. 11. Heat oil in a wok until smoking. Fry carrots 2 minutes, add peas for 1 minute.
  2. 22. Push vegetables aside. Scramble the eggs in the wok until set in flakes.
  3. 33. Add the cold rice. Fry on high heat for 3 minutes, pressing the rice against the wok.
  4. 44. Pour soy around the edge of the wok (not directly on the rice) and toss quickly.
  5. 55. Add garlic, sesame oil and white pepper. Top with spring onion.
