Ingredients

• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 3 Shallots (chopped)
• 1 Garlic clove (chopped)
• 1 Orange Pepper (chopped)
• 300 g Cooked Rice
• 2 Eggs (beaten)
• 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
• 100 g Peas (frozen)
• 100 g Cooked Smoked Sausage (sliced)
• 200 g Cooked Chicken (chopped)
• ½ tsp Salt
• ¼ tsp Black Pepper

Method

1. In a large wok or pan, heat the sesame oil, then stir-fry the shallots, garlic and peppers on a medium high heat for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the cooked rice and stir fry for 2 minutes. Keep stirring so the rice doesn't stick to the pan.
3. Add the beaten egg and fry for 2 minutes until the egg is cooked. Then spoon in the soy sauce.
4. Add the frozen peas and stir until cooked (they will cook very quickly in just a few minutes).
5. Finally, add the chopped smoked sausage and cooked chicken, and heat through until everything is piping hot.
6. Season with salt and pepper if needed (and extra soy sauce).
