Method

01
First make the salsa.
02
Simply mix all these ingredients together and pop in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before cooking your spicy fried veggie rice! 
03
In a large frying pan, add your oil and day-old rice, over a medium low heat. 
04
Mix and add your spices to coat the rice. Add your black beans at this stage along with the rest of your veggies. Taste for seasoning.
05
Just before serving, fry your egg until the base is crispy but the yolk still runny. Garnish with dried parsley and salt and top with chilli sauce, if using. Enjoy!
