Because I felt bad for myself, having to stay indoors on one of the nicest days new york has seen this spring (84 degrees and sunny), I was inspired to make my version of fried rice for lunch. I used some leftover rice I had from the weeknight meal below!

Here is what I did: Generously coat a large wok with oil, and cook one onion until soft and golden brown. Add minced garlic and cubed tofu. Brown over medium heat, then drizzle in some soy sauce. Next add the leftover rice and allow to cook until rice becomes golden. While its cooking, drizzle over top fish sauce and sesame oil (a little goes a long way here). Meanwhile, fry an egg. Serve the egg atop a heaping pile of fried rice, pepper the egg, and garnish with a final drizzle of sesame oil. You will NOT be disappointed.

Weeknight meal: luna's incredibly flavored black beans, ginger tofu, and cheddar cheese.
