This might be very basic but a meal that I always had in mind was egg fried rice, nothing crazy just scrambled eggs and rice mixed together with a savory taste. I remember when I was a kid I used to love egg fried rice, I was very picky and didn’t like any green onions or anything else besides eggs. I would come home every day from school and my parents would be out for work but my grandpa would be home. He would come downstairs to make egg-fried rice almost every day for me to eat and I would smell the burst of umami coming out of the kitchen making me salivate. It was the best fried rice that I’ve ever had. This particular dish is extremely significant to me because ever since I immigrated to America I have never had the chance to eat my grandpa’s egg fried rice anymore. We would face-time each other from time to time and he would always ask if I was going back to visit. I would always say when I go back I want to eat egg fried rice that my grandpa makes.

I like how you explain the main reason why you like Egg-fired rice so much. It is something you would eat because of the egg. But what seasoning did your grandparents add to the egg-fried rice to make it taste so good? I would eat egg-fried rice when I am lazy and I would just cook it up in under 10 minutes. It is very simple and it is pretty good to eat.
i love how you can remember this for so long and it’s like a part of you that also reminds you of your grandpa. it’s a simple dish yet brings so many memories and means so much to you as something very unique
I like the wholesome reason why you like egg-fried rice so much. If you were to make egg-fried rice now, what other ingredients would you add to it in addition to eggs and rice?
I love the originality behind this post the food sounds so good. Do you add more to the food. Do you still eat it as commonly ? I love this because I have such a nice connection with rice just like you.
