Aussie Version Fried Rice - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups instant rice
1/2 - 1 cup frozen peas
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 lb bacon, use a good cut so to avoid too much grease
1 1/2 ounces chicken noodle soup mix
2 eggs

Preparation

Cook the rice with the peas according to package directions. I use a microwave rice cooker, works great. I also put in 1 chicken boullion for flavor.
While this is cooking chop up the bacon and fry with onion in fry pan. I use kitchen shears to cup up bacon. I like to brown the bacon well, it seems to add extra flavor.
Add the cooked rice, peas, and soup to the pan. Original recipe didn't call for it, but I add a bit of water at this stage and 1-2 T butter if getting dry looking. Cook for 15 minutes. Helps to put lid on skillet I find. It helps to soften the noodles from the soup mix. Need to keep an eye on the prevent sticking. Add 2 scrambled eggs, cook through. Enjoy!
