Preparation
Heat the Rice: Begin by heating the leftover rice. If it’s clumped together, break it apart with a fork or your hands. This helps it mix better with the other ingredients.
Cook the Eggs: In a non-stick skillet, heat one tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, seasoning with salt and pepper. You can scramble the eggs or fry them sunny-side up, depending on your preference.
Combine Ingredients: Once the eggs are cooked to your liking, remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil and add the rice. Fry for a few minutes until the rice is warmed through and starts to crisp up slightly.
Add Flavors and Eggs: If you’re using any optional ingredients, now is the time to stir them in. Mix well to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.

Serving Suggestions Serve hot, ideally with a side of steamed vegetables or a simple salad for a balanced meal. The beauty of this dish is its versatility—feel free to add any vegetables, herbs, or sauces you have on hand to tailor it to your taste.
