Well… this dish is not fried, so I shouldn’t name it Fried Rice, but it is almost the same as typical Fried Rice. It is extremely easy to prepare if you have a rice cooker. You don’t need to stand in front of hot cooktop. Place everything in the rice cooker’s inner pot and press the button to start cooking. Add whisked Egg at the end when rice is cooked. While the rice cooker is cooking this dish, you can make a refreshing salad. Dinner will be ready easily.
