Ingredients

  • 3 tsp cooking oil we like coconut
  • 2 ea eggs
  • 2 ea hot dog wieners sliced 1/4" inch thin
  • 4 c cooked rice leftover rice from the fridge works best
  • 1/2 c frozen peas
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Optional garnish: Ketchup and/or soy sauce

    Instructions

    • Heat 1 tsp oil in non-stick pan on medium heat. Crack eggs into pan. Scramble in pan with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula. Stir until just cooked. Remove eggs from pan onto a separate plate, scraping out as much egg residue as possible. 
    • Put pan back on medium-high heat. Add remaining 2 tsp of oil and sliced hot dogs. Fry for 1-2 minutes.
    • Add rice and stir until rice is heated through about 4-5 minutes. 
    • Add frozen peas and salt. Continue stirring over medium heat until peas are heated through. Add eggs back to the pan. Stir to combine and serve.

    Notes

    • Use a non-stick frying pan to make your cleanup a lot easier.  I use this one recommended by America's Test Kitchen.
    • Leftover, cold cooked rice from the fridge generally works better for fried rice.  In a pinch, you can use hot rice, but it will clump up and harder to get each grain separated individually.
    • Instead of whisking eggs in a separate bowl before cooking, you can do it in the pan itself.  Saves 1 dish to clean.
    • Consider using grassfed beef hot dogs or at all beef, hormone/antibiotic free hot dogs.
