You can swap:
Step 1
Cook rice following packet directions, drain and cool completely. Tip: you can cool the rice faster by spreading rice on a baking tray and placing in the fridge or freezer.
Step 2
Lightly grease a heated non-stick pan with oil and pour in eggs to make a thin omelette. Cook over gentle heat until set. Transfer to a plate and slice thinly. Set aside.
Step 3
Lightly grease the same pan with oil and cook onion until golden. Add capsicum, carrot, cabbage, peas, corn, bean shoots (if using) and spring onions. Toss well for several minutes.
Step 4
Add rice, sesame oil and sauces. Stir until sauces have mixed through.
Step 5
Fold in sliced omelette.
Serving suggestion: add some leftover cooked chicken.
Food safety tip: if you are packing leftovers for lunch, cooked rice needs to be kept cold so pack an ice brick.
