My husband and I lived in Japan for a few years and came to love that country's ethnic dishes. This dish captures the Asian flavor better than any other recipes I've tried.

Ingredients

4-1/2 teaspoons olive oil
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 cups cooked long grain rice
1-1/2 cups cubed fully cooked ham (3/4-inch cubes)
3/4 cup frozen peas
3/4 cup frozen corn
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce

Directions

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 2-1/4 teaspoon of oil. Pour eggs into skillet. As eggs set, lift edges, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. Remove eggs to a plate; set aside.
In the same skillet, saute onion and celery in remaining oil until crisp-tender. Reduce heat. Add rice and ham; heat through. Stir in peas and corn; heat through.
Meanwhile, chop egg into small pieces; gently fold into rice mixture. Drizzle with soy sauce.
