Slimming World's special egg fried rice is ideal for those days when you really want to indulge in a takeaway but you don't want all the calories.
This is another one of our most popular Slimming World recipes because it's quick, easy and really versatile. If you just want something simple, you can enjoy it on its own, or topped with a little grilled chicken or beef. It's a great way of using up Sunday roast leftovers, just drizzle a little soy sauce over the top and serve. Or pair it with tasty stir fry or sweet and sour dish for a full takeaway / fakeaway experience. The whole dish takes 30 minutes to make (including boiling the rice) but if you're using already-cooked rice, it takes just 10 minutes to fry it.
