Okay, I guess you can eat it for lunch or dinner or a midnight snack if you're so inclined, but I made it for breakfast. 2 out of 3 kids actively pester me to make this. It's tummy-rubbing delicious.
Rice & Egg Breakfast
Uncooked rice (any kind you like. I use medium grain rice.)
Raw eggs
Seasonings (what do you like with eggs? Salt, pepper, etc.)
Toppings (shredded cheese, bacon crumbles, chopped onion, etc.)
This works best in a non-stick rice cooker prepared for 1-2 people, but feel free to play around with it. For more than 2 people, I'd use a wider-bottomed saucepan so that the egg doesn't sit too thickly on the rice. I don't think deep egg would cook as well.
Rinse & cook rice as normal. While the rice is cooking, beat 1-2 eggs with your seasonings. When the ricer is done with the cook cycle, pour the eggs over the rice (and sprinkle with toppings if you like). DO NOT STIR. Re-cover and allow to stand for ~10 minutes on "keep warm" setting. The hot rice cooks the egg to a wonderfully creamy, cheesy texture.
Serve with sliced fruit and juice spritzers to be extra-fancy.
