Fried Rice

I'm changing this to be written as I made it. The original recipe link is at the bottom though.

Ingredients
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 C onion, chopped
2 cups cooked rice, cold
3/4 C carrots, shredded or grated
2 tablespoons soy sauce
black pepper to taste
1/2 cup chopped ham

Directions
In a small bowl, beat egg with water. Pam spray a large skillet over medium low heat. Add egg and leave flat for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from skillet and cut into shreds.
Heat oil in same skillet; add onion and saute until soft (Kelly note: I always cook onion with garlic salt). Then add rice, carrots, soy sauce, pepper and ham. Stir fry together for about 5 minutes, then stir in egg. Serve hot.

2 notes
1. The ham I used was very finely diced, so you may want to add more ham if you use bigger pieces
2. I cooked the rice while I chopped the onion, cooked the egg, etc. You can't put the rice in warm (don't know why) but I rinsed my rice in cold water a couple times to get it cold which worked fine. That way you won't have to make the rice far ahead of time.
