Add Ingredients to Shopping list

The following ingredients have 4 Servings

• 1 medium onion, (chopped)
• leftover cold rice, (2-4 cups will be enough for 2 people)
• 2-3 T vegetable oil
• 1 T fish sauce, (to taste)
• 2 T nam prik pao, (to taste)
• 2-4 fried eggs, (depending on how much you like fried eggs!)
• lime wedges, (optional)

Instruction

• Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until golden. Add the rice and fry for about 2 minutes, stirring. Add the fish sauce and nam prik pao, starting with lesser amounts. Stir, working the sauces into the rice. Taste for adjustments.
• Dump the rice into a serving dish and then add a little more oil to the pan. Quickly fry the eggs, preferably with a runny yolk so that its golden goodness can mingle with the nam prik pao. Serve on top of the rice with lime wedges if desired.
• *If you want a more complete, less "on the go" meal, add more veggies before adding the rice.
