* 2 cups cooked rice
* 1/2 cup chicken stock
* 3 tbsp oil for frying
* 1 cup onion diced
* 1 cup mixed Vegetables Carrots, Sweet Peas, Sweet Corn and green beans
* 1/2 tsp thyme
* 1 tsp Curry powder

* 1 cup beef liver cubed
* salt to taste
* 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
Instructions
* Add the boiled rice to the stock in a medium pot and cook on medium heat until the water is dried up.

* Throw in the beef liver and rice — Stir-fry for about 3 to 5 minutes on high heat.

Notes
1. The white rice should be cooked tender but still firm to bite (like you cook your pasta al-dente). Overcooking the rice will result in mushy fried rice.
2. Fried rice is best enjoyed when the Veggies remain crunchy, so don't overcook your veggies.
3. You need to increase the heat and stir continuously to get that nice coveted crisp during frying.
