Literally any vegetable that would cook in a jiffy works for this Fried Rice just like mixed sprouts, peas, broad beans, carrots, baby corn and sweet corn. However, I have made this stir-fry rice with spring onions, baby corn, peas and carrots. I love the addition of tofu to this Honey Soy Stir Fried Rice.
Adding egg is a great source of additional protein to the Honey Soy Fried rice but it is completely optional.
