Something lazy for the armchair pundits
Here is a recipe for all the lazy armchair pundits.
To me, an expert is as good as a pundit but considerably inferior to a soldier belonging to either side of the struggle.
I thought a dish of Lazy Rice would be appropriate.
Lazy Rice is the euphemism used for Sri lankan fried rice often made using the leftovers of the previous night including leftover rice. Much alike our blogosphere pundits who ruminate over the leftover arguments of other bloggers comments and posts
So for your lazy rice you will need :
1 or 2 eggs
2 teaspoons sesame oil
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon oil
1/4 cup of chopped onion
50g of Leftovers of any two types of meat or fish
(Sorry pundits comments and blog posts won’t be usable)
1 cup cooked rice
1/2 cup finely sliced carrots
2 tablespoons green peas
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Salt to taste
1/2 cup bean shoots
Optional : Shallots or spring onions
Beat the egg or eggs depending on how eggy you like your fried rice with a little sesame oil, sprinkle of water, and a pinch of salt and sugar.
Heat oil in a pan over a medium heat, pour in the egg mixture to cover the base of the pan like a thin pancake. As soon as the bottom is sealed, tilt the pan up and using a spatula roll the egg pancake. Remove from the pan and chop up into pieces about one cm thick.
Cover a hot wok with oil over a high heat using a teaspoon of oil. Add the onion and any raw meat leftovers and seal, then add cooked meat and or fish leftovers. Add leftover rice keep tossing the mixture continuously and carrots. Allow to cook for a few minutes then add peas, pepper and salt to taste. Finally add bean shoots and mix the previously prepared cut egg.
Optionally finish the dish off with a sprinkling of spring onions / shallots.

Loved it! thanks for sharing—
