In response to "Fried rice and egg drop soup are definitely two things I cannot make." by sycor

You definitely can. Fried rice = take day old rice, fry it in peanut oil, add egg, chopped onion, whatever else you want.

Egg drop soup = take chicken stock, add garlic, ginger, bring to boil, slowly add whisked eggs stirring as you add, then add whatever else you need to add - eg green onion, corn kernels, etc.

right, add a couple diced carrots and a handful of frozen peas and you've got basic vegetable fried rice -- nm - decline Dec 14, 12:40
Who has day old rice? See, I can't make it. -- nm - sycor Dec 14, 12:37 7
- Freshly made rice works okay. -- nm - Dano Dec 14, 12:44
- when I make Asian food, I always double the amount of rice I need and then save 1/2 in the fridge to make fried rice a day or two later -- nm - decline Dec 14, 12:41 5
  - Also, Crispy Cheese Tomato Rice is so very very good and so simple. -- (link) - Andie Dec 14, 12:43
  - I use Minute rice, so I don't think it works for Fried rice since it's "instant" rice. -- nm - sycor Dec 14, 12:43 3
    - Minute rice is just rice that has been cooked already, then dried. I'm sure it would be fine for fried rice. -- nm - Roger More Dec 14, 12:45
    - i don't know why it wouldn't. -- nm* - Andie Dec 14, 12:44 1
      - I thought I had read instant rice doesn't work for fried rice. I could be very wrong though. I will try to research it. -- nm - sycor Dec 14, 12:46
I think the little bits of pork is the part that I wouldn't be able to recreate easily at home -- nm* - Krusty Dec 14, 12:36 5
- Actually, you can. Take a pork tenderloin, make a sauce from soy sauce, hoi sin sauce, honey, cooking sherry and five spice powder, marinade the pork, - Roger More Dec 14, 12:41 4
  - I'll order take out. :-) But I am noting all this info for future use. Thanks! -- nm - Krusty Dec 14, 12:46 3
    - Yeah, I wouldn't make it just to then make fried rice. (Also, you can buy pre-made barbecue pork sauce in a jar) -- nm - Roger More Dec 14, 12:49
    - This is the recipe I use: -- (link) - kelly Dec 14, 12:48 1 1
