One evening, my darling wanted to eat fried rice. I thought I could make a Nasi Goreng Kampung for him but when i wanted to start cooking, i found out that we've ran out of groceries. There's no kangkung nor others main ingredients in the fridge. With a heart to cook a yummy~licious dinner for my darling, i came out with this recipe with the ingredients i could find in our pathetic fridge.
Ingredients:
2 servings white rice (cooked from 1 1/2cup rice grain)
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
1/2 onion (chopped)
5 chili padi (slit open in the middle and crushed with the face of knife)
1/2 small bowl M size dried anchovies
2 leaves lettuce (sliced)
1/2 carrot (sliced into thin strips)
4 crackers* (*optional)
1/2 tsp salt or to taste
In a wok, deed fried anchovies until brown or crispy. Scoop anchovies & leave aside until needed.
Leaving about 2-3 tablespoon of anchovies oil, saute onion & chili padi until fragrant. Throw in the carrot strips and rice. Mix well.
Make a well in the center of the rice. Add about 1/2 tbsp oil in the well and pour beaten eggs in it. Cover the eggs with rice. Leave it untouch for about 30seconds, then combine well. The rice should be all in yellow color. Add salt to taste.
Serve in a plate. Garnish with sliced lettuce and crispy fried anchovies on top and crackers at the side.
Tips: Anchovies mush be washed thoroughly then leave in colander to drain off excess water before deep frying.
Tea Chats: This is actually a very simple dish but as you can see, presentation makes a lot of different. That is how i lure my darling to eat my food. lol! :D
