Get your ingredients ready.Chopped red, green and yellow pepper (1/4 of each pepper bell), 3 eggs beaten, drained canned sweetcorn (1/2 can), chopped corned meat (1 tin) and cooked rice (8 cups). Heat oil in pan, add garlic (3 cloves, chopped) and swirl the pan to flavour the oil. Add eggs and fry until they are just about done.
  2. When the eggs are done, remove them from pan and put in a plate and set aside. Add onions (1 onion, cut into rings) to the same pan and sweat them (30 seconds). Add the peppers and stir. Add the carrots (1/2 carrot, grated) right away and again, stir.
  3. Add your sweet corn and corned meat and stir until it’s just mixed. Add the rice and combine everything well, being careful not to break up the corned meat.
