My mum used to make this dish, especially during the days she was busy and would come back a little later from work. We ate a lot of rice in the house and would have left over rice, perfect for this.

This is the reason why I love eating this dish. Especially since I always cook too much rice. Not only is this egg fried rice delicious, it is a quick and simple dish to make.

Steps

1

Place shiitake mushrooms in a bowl to rehydrate. Soak for 10 minutes. In the meantime make the omelette. Crack the eggs in a small bowl and gently beat it.
2

In a small pan, on medium to high heat add oil and let it heat up. Pour the egg mixture and make an omelette. Place on a plate and set aside to cool.
3

Slice the dried sausages or frankfurters, spring onions and shiitake mushrooms. Transfer onto a plate and set aside.
4

In a wok on medium high heat add oil and let it heat up. Add the sausage to the wok. Cook for a minute and stir occasionally until the colour changes. Add shiitake mushrooms and continuously stir to avoid burning. Cook about 2 minutes.
5

Add the rice to the wok. With a spatula break up the rice grains and stir occasionally. Turn heat down to medium. While the rice heats up, slice cooled omelette into thin strips.
6

Add the sweetcorn and peas to the wok and stir. Cook until the peas and sweetcorn are soft.
7

Now add the white pepper, oyster and soya sauce to the wok and continuously stir to evenly coat the rice. Turn heat down to very low.
8

Add the sliced omelette and give everything a good stir. Taste the rice to see if more seasoning is needed, if so adjust taste and stir to incorporate everything (add more pepper, soya sauce, oyster sauce depending on preference).
9

Lastly, add the sesame oil and and throughly stir everything again. Transfer the fried rice to serving bowls (mould rice if you wish). Garnish with spring onions.
10

Serve immediately and eat while hot. It can be eaten as a main or side dish along with other side accompaniments. Add chilli oil to the rice to add spice and more flavour to the dish (optional).
