I’m not a steam rice person, so whenever I got some leftover rice, what’s in my mind is when to eat it, it’s how to re-cook it. I like to add more flavor to rice so it will taste much better.

Ingredients:Rice Pancake with Bacon and Green Onion

Egg, Bacon, Leftover Rice, Green Onion, seasoning.

Method:

1. Heat up frying pan on medium heat, fry bacon until crispy, then break into little pieces. Set aside.

2. Chop green onion into little pieces, mix with some salt and any other seasoning you want to use, set aside for several minutes so the green onion will get tender.
