Corn 'n Egg Fried Rice

If you have leftover rice from last night, this is the perfect way to turn it yummy.

Ingredients (serves 2):
Two bowls of cold cooked rice
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 eggs, beaten with salt
1/2 cup of sweet corn, boiled
2 stalks of spring / green onions, stalks and onions separately chopped
chilli flakes
3-4 tsp oil
salt to taste
1/4 tsp sesame oil (optional)

Method:
Heat oil in a kadhai or wok. Add the garlic, when it turns brown add the white part of the chopped green onions. Then tip in the corn, boiled rice and fry some more. All this must happen on a high heat.
Now lower the heat and make a dent in the middle of the wok. Pour the beaten eggs into this and cook on a medium heat for 30 secs, then scramble the egg with a spoon. When it is mixed with the rice, add chilli flakes and salt. Garnish with chopped green onions. Drizzle some sesame oil (optional) and serve hot.
You could top it with fried bacon tidbits. The flavour is awesome.
