Method

  1. Cook the rice to pack instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs and 1 tbsp soy sauce to combine. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat, then cook the eggs for 2-3 mins, gently folding the eggs back on themselves until set. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  3. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in the pan over a medium heat and cook the onions and pepper for 5 mins or until starting to soften, stirring frequently. Mix in the cooked rice, peas and ham and cook for 1-2 mins, tossing frequently, until piping hot. Drizzle over the remaining soy sauce, then stir through the eggs, breaking them up into smaller chunks. Scatter with the coriander and chilli to serve.
