Chinese-Style Fried Rice

I'm not sure where this recipe originally came from, but this is the rice my Mom used to make quite a bit when I was younger.  It's a great dish to serve with Chow Mein, or pretty much any Asian-inspired meal.

• 1 3/4 c water
• 1 1/2 c Minute rice
• 1 egg, beaten
• 3 Tbsp butter, melted
• 1/3 c chopped onion
• 2-3 Tbsp soy sauce

Bring 1 1/4 c of the water to a boil in a saucepan.  Stir in rice.  Remove from heat; cover & let stand 5 minutes.  Meanwhile, cook the egg in butter in a 10-12" skillet until set.  Add onion & the rice.  Cook & stir over medium heat until rice and onion are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.  Combine the remaining water & soy sauce and stir into the rice.  Makes about 3 cups or 4 servings.
