I make a rice dish that changes according to what's in the fridge, and which everyone always likes. Finely chop up any veg you have around, eg onion, garlic, red pepper, carrots, courgette. Fry in a pan with bacon lardons or small bits of chicken or sausage or a combination of the three. When fried add peas to soften. Meanwhile cook lots of rice. Stir the two pans together. Serve sprinkled with spring onions and soy sauce/ sriracha/ grated cheese/ all three and a salad on the side. If you're doing the Chinese-ish version (eg with chicken and soy sauce) you can add a shredded omelette and/or cashews to the rice when you mix it in and serve with prawn crackers.
