From the Test Kitchen

Tonight's fried rice features an exciting array of vegetables: earthy shiitake mushrooms, tender red cabbage, and sweet carrots. As for our eggs, instead of stirring them into our fried rice, we're cooking them sunny side-up and serving them on top. The rich yolks make for a luxurious accompaniment to the savory rice.
