Very special egg fried rice (V)
A meal in itself or a very nice accompaniment to most meals.
It had an almost lemony taste, which I guess was the high amount of pickled items used.

Peeling ginger
There is no need to peel ginger. As a result of attending a Thai cookery demo, we have learnt that peeling ginger is unnecessary unless for aesthetic purposes as the skin is high in fibre and full of flavour. However, do remove any bits that have become tough or woody.
