1 egg
2 cups of cooled cooked rice
2 Tbsp cooking oil
1/2 medium carrot, finely sliced
1 tsp oil
1 Tbsp butter
2 bird’s eye chilli (cili padi), finely sliced (optional)

Methods:

1. Break salted egg and separate yolk and white. Steam salted egg yolk for 10 minutes or until cooked. Mash egg yolk and set aside.
2. Heat wok and put in about 2 Tbsp oil. Put in carrots and add in rice and toss until rice is hot. Dish up and set aside.
3. On low heat, put in butter(not necessary to wait till fully melted) and mashed egg yolks. Cook egg yolks until it looks foamy.
4. Put rice back into wok and toss until rice is hot again and add in egg.
Push rice to the side of wok and add in salted egg whites. Quickly stir the rice onto egg whites (the salted egg whites cook really quick) and toss rice so that the egg whites will be well dispersed.
