Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked rice
  • ½ pound pork (thinly sliced)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 medium bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1 medium onion (sliced)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the 1 sliced onion and 1 sliced bell pepper, stir-fry until slightly softened, about 2 minutes.

  2. 2

    Push vegetables to one side. Add the 0.5 lb sliced pork and cook, stirring, until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Push pork and vegetables to the side. Crack the 2 eggs into the empty space, scramble until just set, about 1 minute.

  4. 4

    Add the 3 cups cooked rice and 3 tbsp soy sauce. Toss everything together, breaking up clumps, until rice is hot and evenly coated, about 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Serve hot, garnished with cucumber slices and lettuce leaves if desired.
