Ingredients

1 1/2 cup long grain rice

3 cup water

1/2 tsp salt

1 small onion, diced

2 tilapia fillets, semi frozen

Cooking Instructions
-
1
*** some recipes use Ham but I use Bacon drippings in place of 'oil'....
-
2
rinse rice 3 times... put in sauce pan with water and salt... let soak for 30 minutes....
-
3
allow water to come to a boil and turn down to Med/low. allow to cook covered for 16-18 minutes
-
4
put rice in shallow pan.. toss and fan... once it is room temp u can put it in the freezer for 45 minutes... though it seems silly to fan and toss the rice... it is important for the steam and moisture to get out of the rice....

semi frozen fish should be cut in cubes and the shrimp should also have the tales removed.

onion should be diced in one bowl and green onion should be cut in another bowl.

break rice up by hand so that it is like individual kernals.

2 eggs should be beaten in a bowl... add a dash of salt and pepper. put oil in wok or large non-stick skillet.. scramble the egg and then put it back in original bowl... the heat from the egg will cook any left in bowl...

put 2T of oil in skillet put in diced onion and frozen veggies (NOT GREEN ONION) stir it on Med/ high until they are semi soft add fish and shrimp.... stir until shrimp is pink and fish is white.... removed from skillet.... I had a large mixing bowl and just put it in with the eggs...

I put 2 more Tbsp of oil and allow it to get hot. pour rice into hot oil and stir constantly ... making sure all the rice is covered with oil. rice will turn tan or the color of brown rice... and green onion and continue to stir...

put meat--- fish and egg back in skillet and continue to rapidly stir. add the soy sauce... once the soy sauce is mixed in well it's done....
