I mean the one you do when you want something easy to do, but not when you're tired at the point you microwave a frozen-meal, or just cut down a piece of cheese and put it in a bread

If any dangerous pathogens are kept out or killed, I guess more power to the you? However, I'm just thinking: "Why not make fried rice out of that?" Heck, you'd just need some oil and garlic and letting that day-old rice cool and dry out a bit.

Fry the egg first, then using the same oil the egg is fried in, then once the garlic is almost golden brown, take it off the oil and add the rice. Let the rice heat up and then add the chili paste, the garlic, the pork fu and/or whatever else you might have on hand you fancy adding. Season to taste and cook to desired "doneness". Some like it cooked to the point of the rice gaining that scorched and crunchy layer.

And that's just basing off your recipe. A lot of dinner left-overs can be added to next day's fried rice, and it's just basically a way of dealing with left-overs (and rice) and cooking a one-dish meal out of it..

I was just basing it on "too lazy to cook". I will note egg fried IN chili paste & oil is ridiculously good too. But haven't really worried about rice kept out, it has a keep warm button on the rice cooker? It's only for a day usually, have a family so it gets eaten.

Oh, yeah, I hear you! My go-to for those "I feel too lazy to cook something substantial" would be ramen because fried rice can actually be pretty hard work, lol!

Also, thanks for the tip about fried eggs. We usually don't add much to our fried eggs here, just a bit of salt and a bit of all-purpose seasoning if we're feeling fancy. Otherwise, it'd be an omelette with onions and tomatoes and all that and it's already become a dish of its own.
