1 tbsp. of turmeric powder
6-8 tbsps. of cooking oil

Deseed and core the bell peppers and chop coarsely.

Cut the cauliflower into florettes.

Cut the sibuyas na mura into 1-inch lengths.

Heat 2-3 tablespoonfuls of cooking oil in a large skillet or wok. When hot, pour in the beaten eggs and cook until set. Remove from the oil and chop coarsely. Set aside.

Add another tablespoonful of oil to the skillet or wok. Cook the carrots and bell peppers until tender crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Add more cooking oil. When hot, saute the garlic until lightly browned. Add the diced pork adobo and cook until reheated thoroughly. Add the turmeric and stir well. Add the mashed cold rice and cook, tossing, until heated through. Return all the vegetables and chopped eggs to the skillet or wok and toss with the rice. Season with salt and pepper.
