Steps· Air Fryer

1
Put the cold cooked rice and the diced carrot and onion in an air-fryer-safe tin. Stir in the seasoning and just enough oil to coat, not a pool of oil.
2
Air fry at 180 C for 6 minutes, stirring halfway.
3
Stir in the beaten egg and air fry for 4-5 minutes more, stirring every 2 minutes, until the egg is fully cooked and the rice is steaming.
4
Fluff with a fork and serve.

Storage & leftovers

Cool quickly, refrigerate for up to 2 days, and reheat until steaming throughout.

Student tip

Cut the egg into even pieces so it cooks evenly and quickly.
