I like fish.
My husband likes rice.
So, tonight I combined the 2 likes, and provided a tasty meal to suit both of our tastes.
The mushroom powder used in this recipe, tints the rice a lovely burnt brown hue: toss it with veggies and a scrambled egg, for a quick fried rice.

1) Heat oil in the skillet, over moderate heat.
2) Add the garlic, onion, celery & carrot - reduce heat to low, & continue cooking with low heat until veggies are tender; stir occasionally to keep garlic from browning.
3) Blend the rice in & stir to to combine evenly.
4) Sprinkle with the mushroom powder, curry powder, & a pinch EA of kosher salt and ground black pepper: stir to mix evenly.
5) Add the peas & soy sauce - stir to incorporate.
6) With spatula, make a hollow in the center of the vegetables - pushing them to the sides of the skillet; pour the beaten eggs to the center of the pan and allow to solidify a bit, then drag your spatula through the cooking eggs: the same way you would do when making scrambled eggs.
