Thai rice dish

Boil the rice in water and let it cool completely (this can also be done the day before). Whisk the two eggs with the milk or water. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large frying pan and scramble the eggs. Remove from the pan, set aside, and keep warm. Peel the onions, wash and deseed the tomatoes, spring onions, and bell peppers, and dice everything. Also dice the chicken fillets into approximately 2 cm cubes. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Heat the remaining oil in a wok or large frying pan. Add the garlic and fry until golden brown. Then fry the onions and chicken cubes. Add the bell peppers and continue frying until the liquid has evaporated and the meat is cooked. Add the cold rice and heat through, stirring constantly. Add the diced tomatoes and spring onions, and season with soy sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Fold in the scrambled eggs and serve. Tip: This dish is suitable with any type of meat and/or fish.
