This dish is a great way of making use of leftover rice. Scrambled eggs are stir-fried with cucumber and rice, then seasoned and served. Feel free to use oil instead of lard and substitute in any vegetables you prefer.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more soy sauce next time.

I'm not a big fan of cucumber, but I really enjoyed this dish. The cucumber added a subtle sweetness that balanced out the other flavors.
