1. 1Step 1: Cook the rice in fresh water following the packet instructions. Wash and finely dice or coarsely grate the carrots. Peel and finely dice the onion.
2. 2Step 2: Heat about two-thirds of the oil in a large frying pan. Gently cook onion and carrots for about 5 minutes. Add peas and the measured vegetable water. Cover and cook for another 6–8 minutes, until carrots are soft and peas are hot throughout.
3. 3Step 3: Push the vegetables to the edge of the pan. Beat the eggs in a bowl. Add the remaining oil to the centre of the pan, pour in the eggs and stir until fully set. If the pan is small, cook the eggs separately.
4. 4Step 4: Add the freshly cooked rice and heat everything thoroughly. Squash peas and break up larger egg pieces for younger children. Allow to cool a little. If your child prefers separate foods, set aside rice, vegetables and fully cooked egg before mixing.
