JAPANESE FRIED RICE 
1 cup uncooked long grain converted or parboiled rice (not instant or quick white rice)
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
2 tbsp. finely grated carrot
1/2 cup diced onion
1 1/2 tbsp. butter
2 tbsp. soy sauce
salt
pepper

Cook the rice following the instructions on the package. This should take about 20 minutes. Pour the rice into a large bowl to let it cool. Scramble the eggs in a small pan over medium heat. chop scrambled chunks of egg into small pea-sized bits with your spatula while cooking. When the rice is cooled, add the peas, carrots, eggs and onion to the bowl. Carefully toss all of the ingredients together. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium/high heat. When the butter has completely melted, dump the rice mixture into the pan and add the soy sauce plus a dash of salt and pepper. Cook the rice mixture for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring often.

Thank you for this recipe. It tasted just like what we get at our favorite Japanese restaurant. The only thing changed was using a couple dashes of Lawry's garlic salt in place of the regular salt. I'm keeping this one! :)
