plating skills and write a summary.
GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE DINNER FOR YOUR FAMILY!

 Fried rice using a recipe you found, get creative if you want-add a
protein:) 
 Any rice based recipe, using a recipe you found
 Find another recipe of something to make  

NOTE: I realize it is hard to make it to the grocery store so if you

need to improvise with ingredients you have at home, that's fine.  
Make sure you submit via email (sstiker@lphs.net) the following to
receive credit:

what you were able to practice, what was challenging, if you had to
substitute any ingredients, would you make it again, etc.
QUICK & EASY FRIED RICE

2 eggs, cooked and chopped

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

1. Heat oil in a wok or nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add in garlic, ginger and
the white portion of the green onions. Cook until fragrant.
2. Add carrots & peas, cook until heated and softened.
3. Add rice (and protein if using) continue to cook until rice slightly crisped and brown.
Don’t stir too much, you do want to get a little bit of caramelization.
