Add in the garlic and onion and stir fry till fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add in the Kai Lan and stir fry for another 2 minutes. Add in brown rice and mushrooms and stir fry for another 4 minutes. Add in the soy sauce mixture and stir to combine. Push the rice to the side of the wok, creating a hole in the middle, and add in the beaten eggs. Stir the egg mix for about 2 minutes before mixing it in with the rice. Stir in scallion and remove from heat. Plate and serve hot.


Pro Tip


Overnight leftover rice (instead of freshly cooked rice) is the best kind of rice to use for this dish. Store uneaten fried rice in a container and reheat the next day for a quick, tasty lunch on the go!
