When I was single I used to make this meal a lot.

It's perfect to make in huge quantities and eat it for 3 days straight.

I don't make huge amounts anymore because now that I live with Bianca we eat something different every day.

What helps is that she is a very good cook and master of a whole different cuisine.

Which reminds me of something my dad used to tell me.

Mark, find a girlfriend that can cook, it's very important!

Guess I hit the jackpot :)

But this meal my mom thought me how to make it when I was young.

It's a Dutchified version of fried rice I guess.

I like it a lot, reminds me of my youth.

Ingredients: Rice, Asian spice mix, red pepper, ginger, chicken, vegetables and satay sauce.

---

---

Start with frying the chicken until cooked.

---

---

In the meantime fry some rice in a little bit of oil (2 min) and add water till just under. Keep adding water till the rice is done.

---

---

Add the spice mix to the chicken and stir for 2-3 minutes.

---

---

Add the vegetables and keep frying/stirring.

---

---

Prepare the satay sauce. I never learned how to make one properly (I tried many times but it just doesn't taste good). I use one from a package where you add water. I would love to get tips.

---

---

Add the rice to the meat mixture and stir.

---

---

I like a fried egg on top of my rice. As luck would have it I got one with a double yolk!

---

---

I also like a good spoon of mild Sambal. It gives a nice kick to the meal.

End Result. I love this version because it reminds me of my youth. But I'm pretty sure it's not 'original' (if there is such a thing). I would love to learn how to make one from scratch and cook it. If you have any recipes let me know I would like that.
