Salted Egg Fried Mixed Rice

Scrumptious and flavourful! This dish shared by home cook Rosalynn Tan is unlike your usual fried rice. The Salted Egg Fried Mixed Rice recipe uses a combination of Jasmine and Thai Berry rice, complemented with a generous variety of ingredients such as chicken, prawn, asparagus, carrot and salted egg.

“The use of different rice gives a better texture to the whole dish!” – Rosalynn Tan

What caught us by surprise was the texture the Thai Berry rice added to the dish. The rice was soft but chewier than normal white rice and had a palatable aftertaste. Not only is it tasty, but we also found out that it contains antioxidant properties and contains three times more iron than other varieties.

By adding the salted egg to the rice, it boosted the flavour and gave it a natural saltiness to the dish. If you and your family love eating rice that is soft and moist, add in the egg and cook it with the rice. However, if you prefer having a grainer type of fried rice, cook egg separately and cut into strips to garnish on the rice instead.

This is our rendition of a hearty and flavourful fried rice! What’s yours?
