Method
Place water and rice in a saucepan, bring to a boil, cover and simmer until done, about 15 minutes. Cool rice, then spread onto a baking sheet and refrigerate until cold. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet or wok. Add eggs and stir until scrambled, remove from pan and set aside. Add 2 tablespoons oil to hot pan and stir in ham, mushrooms, green onion, carrots and peas. Saute for a few minutes, then add remaining oil to pan. Stir in cold rice, adding more oil if needed. Stir in soy sauce, sugar, and pepper to taste.
Notes: What I love about fried rice is that you can throw in just about any leftover vegetable and it's good, so take a peek in your refrigerator and see what would work.
Number of Servings: 6-8
