Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 tablespoon butter and 1 2/3 cups water to a boil over high heat. Stir in 1 cup long grain rice. Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover the pan, and simmer until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
-
Step 2.
Stir the rice with a fork. Reduce heat to low, cover, and continue cooking until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and keep covered.
-
Step 3.
While the rice cooks, in a large skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat, coating the pan. In a small bowl, beat 2 large eggs. Add the eggs to the skillet and fry until set, turning once. Transfer the cooked egg to a plate and cut into 1/2-inch by 2-inch strips; set aside.
-
Step 4.
In the same skillet, heat another tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add 4 ounces cubed cooked ham and cook until lightly browned, about 2-3 minutes. Transfer the ham to the plate with the eggs and set aside.
-
Step 5.
In the same skillet, add the final tablespoon oil. Add 1 small chopped onion and stir-fry for 1 minute. Stir in peas (amount not specified, use about 1/2 cup), cover, and cook until tender, 2-3 minutes.
-
Step 6.
Gently stir in the cooked rice, egg strips, ham, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon oriental sesame oil. Cook until heated through, about 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately.
