Ingredients
- 1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 3 cups cooked long grain rice, cooled
- 1/2 onion, diced
- 4 thick slices deli ham, cut into bite-size pieces
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 cups baby spinach
Instructions
- Heat 1/4 cup of the canola oil in a large nonstick saute pan set over medium-high heat. Add the rice and spread it out in an even layer. Cook the rice without stirring to crisp it up, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir the rice and continue to cook until lightly browned and crispy, about 4 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, heat the remaining 3 tablespoons canola oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the ham and cook until the edges start to brown, 3 minutes.
- In a medium bowl beat together the eggs and milk. Add a pinch each of salt and pepper.
- Add the spinach to the rice and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Then add the sauteed onions and ham. Add the eggs and give it a good stir. Cook, stirring occasionally until the eggs are cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Reviews
Tasted like scrambled with ham. Not a fan of frying rice, think I’ll pass.
good recipe, can I use non-deli ham though and slice it myself?
My girls loved this fried rice! It’s to get them to eat breakfast, but they ate this and begged for more.
