Fried Rice with egg and vegetables

One day before:

First you need to cook the rice, about 1 1/3 cup of long grain rice. I do the rice in a rice cooker, but of course you can make it in a saucepan with a heavy bottom, the rice should be crumbly ( loose, able to be fried) and not mushy.

So with the rice rinse it in the sink in a sieve 2-3 times, drain, and add enough cold water (about 2 cups). Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium, and boil the rice until most of the water has evaporated, 4-5 min. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer 10 min or until all of the water is absorbed. Turn off the heat and let cool. Then chill it  in the refrigerator overnight.

These dish is better to cook in a wok, but you can use a large pan too.
