I think I've finally found the sweet spot for my fried rice recipe. Tastes just right. I make no claims of the authenticity of this recipe. I have no idea how the Chinese make it :-)

Ingredients cooked (boiled) rice======================2 cups prawns (cooked and peeled)===============100 gm sausages / other cooked meat==============as required onoin=================================1/4 th of medium size ginger================================1 inch piece (finely chopped) soya sauce============================1 tsp vinegar===============================1 tsp egg==================================1 fresh ground black pepper================a pinch oil===================================3 tbsp

Method 1. The cooked rice should be cooled to room temperature at least. It's best to use leftover rice from the previous day. 2. Add a pinch of salt and the pepper to the egg and beat till frothy. 3. Squeeze the prawns so that they are dry. 4. Slice the onion finely. 5. Heat a fry pan on high heat. The pan should become very hot before you add the oil. 6. Add 2 tbsp of oil. The oil will start smoking. Immediately add the finely chopped ginger. Fry for 10 seconds. Add the prawns and stir fry for 2 minutes / until dry. 7. Add the soya sauce and vinegar and stir. 8. Add the sliced onion and sausage / cooked meat and stir fry for another 2 minutes. 9. Add the rice and salt to taste. Stir fry until the rice is hot. 10. Transfer the rice to a closed vessel to keep hot. 11. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in another pan until hot.
