How do you do the egg for the fried rice? I mean, when you don't forget.

I cook all the vegetables that are going in it in a frying pan, and when they're just about done I pile them all to one side of the pan and use the other side to scramble an egg or two.

Once the eggs come together I mix it all together in the pan with the vegetables. Then I take the mixture out of the pan and put it aside in a bowl, covered with foil to stay warm.

Then I melt some butter in that same frying pan, and fry the rice on top of that. When the rice starts to crisp up a little I mix in a dash of soy sauce and a dash of ponzu sauce and mix it all together. Then I mix in the cooked vegetables and egg with a little dirty dick's hot sauce and bam, vegetable fried rice.
