Make Ahead
Chinese Fried Rice Frittata
- Serves 2 generously
Author Notes
My hubby loves pork fried rice, but we always order it prepared special: with pork, eggs, scallions, and lots of bean sprouts, no other vegetables. I even like bean sprouts so much I buy a bag of fresh ones and add it at hoem to the fried rice i bought.
There are usually some leftovers and when I have a half or whole cup leftover I make a fritatta out of it .
Sometimes there is a bit of leftover diced pork or shrimp or chicken...whatever ...pea pods or peppers you name it.
I add it all to the mix to make my own version onf a Chinese Fritatta and it is absolutely scrumptious.
