Sprinkle on soya sauce and salt to taste. Stir-fry rice on moderate heat until rice changes color and is slightly crisp. Remove and keep warm.

Wipe out pan and pour in beaten egg, swirling pan to make a very thin omelette. Cook until set, then remove and shred. Add celery (if used), and a little more oil and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
