Fried Rice Illustrated

Enver Hoxha says it's fried rice time! Enver Hoxha says it's fried rice time!

First let's gather our ingredients.

Now we heat up some oil in a large pan.

Time to fry the onions! [Turns out I can't upload a video of the frying onions. Trust me, the sound and smell were intoxicating.]

Look how nice and brown they are!

Time to add the peppers!

When those have cooked a bit, we add the rice.

Time for the eggs.

Hollow out a little home for them.

In they go.

Don't forget the garlic.

Ketchup.

This is also when I added the chili paste. The rice is looking pinker now.

Cheese is optional.

The final result was disappointing, and I had to add Cholula to make it tasty.

Every good boy deserves a treat for making a home-cooked meal.

But the cider was not actually very good.
