Egg fried rice is simple to make and makes a perfect lunch box recipe…..This recipe comes handy when you are running out of vegetables and time…..Most of the times morning are like playing a movie on a fast forward mode in many houses……with kids to go to school, maid turning up, husbands to leave for their offices and in many houses wife’s going out for work……when you have so many things to do and running short of time…this simple egg fried rice comes handy….You can also make this with leftover rice….which makes the things more easier……And this recipe is for some of those who are stay at home mom’s and find difficult at times to cook a meal to gratify that hunger pangs…..Those beautiful red chopsticks gracing the pictures were gifted by Padma Rekha. Thank you so much dear.
