Cheesy Baked Rice, The Perfect Recipe for Leftover Rice
Cheesy baked rice topped with hard boiled egg chucks |
Instead of the common fried rice, I am making my very own version of cheesy baked rice from the overnight left-over rice. It turned out to be absolutely good with my secret ingredient, the hard boiled egg. Little did I know, cheese and hard boiled egg, especially the yolk is a perfect match. Paired together, they tasted like the creamy salted-egg yolk. For those who love salted egg yolks as I do, this is the recipe you should not miss.
Ingredients:
- a bowl of left-over rice
- a hard boiled egg (cut into small chunks)
- shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 100 grams of turkey ham
- 3 chicken nuggets (cut into small cubes)
- 2 tbsp of instant curry sauce
Instructions: In a big bowl, add in the rice, curry sauce, turkey ham stripes, chicken nuggets and mix well. Transfer the rice mixture into oven-friendly baking tray. Top off with the hard boiled egg chunks, follow by a layer of generous shredded Mozzarella cheese. Pop into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes (at 180°C heat) until the cheese melted and turned golden brown and crusty.
Serve the rice with some finely sliced cucumber. Mmm ... mmm... it tastes sooooo good!
