Rice
  1. Prepare the rice for 4 portions as instructed in the package and put it aside. You can add 1 tea spoon of chicken concentrate but remember to reduce any salt accordingly. Usually rice to water ratio is 1:2.
Chicken
  1. Put the chicken in a bowl and add 1 tea spoon of salt, 1 tea spoon of corn flour, 1 tea spoon of sweet soy sauce, 1/2 tea spoon of banking soda and the thinly sliced chilli.
  2. Mix thoroughly.
  3. Put it in the fridge for around 20 minutes.
  4. Once the chicken is ready. Put 1 table spoon of oil into a hot wok.
  5. Then add half the garlic and ginger to that wok and let it fry for few seconds.
  6. Then add the chicken. Leave the chicken flat on the wok for 2 minutes.
  7. Then turn the chicken other way around. We want to make the chicken little brown but not burn it.
  8. Put the cooked chicken into a clean bowl.
Eggs
  1. Beat the 4 eggs lightly with 1 tea spoon of salt and 2 tea spoons of pepper.
  2. Add 1 table spoon of oil to the hot wok and then add the eggs and scramble them until the eggs are little brown outside.
  3. Put the cooked eggs into a clean bowl.
Stir fry
  1. Add 2 table spoons of oil to the hot wok.
  2. Add the garlic and ginger. Let it fry for few seconds.
  3. Then add carrots and salty soy sauce and mix well.
  4. Cover and let it cook for a minute.
  5. Then add the leeks and cover mix well.
  6. Cover and cook for 30s.
  7. Then add the rice and mix well with the vegetables.
  8. Then add chicken and scrambled eggs and mix well.
  9. Let it sit on the stove for 30s but make sure nothing burns.
  10. Enjoy!
Notes
  1. I like food with less salt. You can add salt wherever mentioned as you prefer.
  2. For the stir fry you can add bean sprouts, broccoli, bamboo shoots if you have them.
  3. Serve with sweet chilli sauce or hot chilli sauce if you can't find Chinese chilli paste.
