Flip and grill the other side, until the surface turns golden brown. Turn to lowest heat and transfer chicken to a plate. Set aside.

Add 1 teaspoon of oil and rice. Use spatula to chop rice into small chunks. Chop and stir the rice until mixed well with curry paste.
• (Optional) Use spatula to move the rice to one side of the skillet. Add oil and egg on the other side. Wait until egg is slightly cooked on the bottom, then mix the egg with rice. Stir a few times until egg is cooked.
