Chicken Fried Rice

1 tbsp oil
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tbsp oil
1 cup chicken, finely diced
1 med onion, finely diced
1/2 cup water chestnuts, finely diced
1/2 cup bamboo shoots, finely diced
1/2 cup celery, finely diced
1 cup fresh bean sprouts
1/2 cup frozen peas (opt)
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (opt)
4 cup cooked rice
soya sauce
salt
pepper

Cut up and prepare all ingredients. Reserve. Heat wok up with 1 tablespoon
oil and fry egg into a thin sheet. Remove to plate and reserve. Add 2
tablespoons more oil to wok. Heat until smoking. Stir fry chicken and onion
together until cooked. (If leftover meat is used, just heat through.) Add
bean sprouts, peas, celery. Stir and cook 2 minutes with wok covered.
Uncover wok, add all the rest of the vegetables. Stir fry and cook covered
for 2 additional minutes.
Add cooked rice, season with salt, pepper, soya sauce. Reduce heat to
medium. Take your turner and break up clumps of rice as finely as possible.
Make
sure rice takes up soya sauce and does not remain white. Keep stir-frying
until all rice is broken up and heated through. Shut heat off. Cut up sheet
of egg into small pieces and stir into rice, or remove rice to serving
platter and garnish with egg slivers.
