This recipe was super delicious. I didn't cook the rice in mushroom broth, just with water (I will try it next time). I used carrots & celery & red onion because I didn't have the pea pods. I used 3 eggs instead of 2, I like it a bit more eggy. Loved it, thanks for sharing. Next time I will top it off with some peanuts.
