Ingrediënten

2 cups cooked and chilled short or medium-grain rice

4 large egg yolks (2 for mixing with rice, 2 for the pan)

3 bulb scallion (thinly sliced (separate white and green parts)

4-5 oz diced Canadian bacon (or cooked ham, or Chinese sausage (lap cheong)

½ tsp coarse sea salt

¼ tsp ground white pepper

¼ tsp garlic granules

½ tsp shiitake mushroom seasoning

1½ tsp toasted sesame oil

Crispy fried shallots (for garnish, optional)

Instructies

Break up the rice grains

Break up the rice: Gently separate any clumps of rice with your hands, being careful not to smash the grains. You can wear food-safe gloves if the rice sticks to your hands.

Coat the rice with egg yolks

Coat rice with egg yolks: Transfer the rice to a large mixing bowl. Add 2 egg yolks on top, then use your hands to gently mix until all the grains are evenly coated.

Set aside 2 extra egg yolks for stir fry

Prep the remaining yolks: In a small bowl, set aside the remaining 2 egg yolks. Keep the egg whites in the fridge for breakfast or another recipe—you won’t need them for this dish.

Crisp up the bacon bits

Cook the bacon or sausage: Preheat a large wok or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the diced bacon and cook over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until the edges are slightly crisp and the fat has rendered.

Add scallions and 2 egg yolks

Add scallions and yolks: Add the white scallion parts and the 2 reserved yolks to the pan. Give a quick stir, then immediately add the egg-coated rice.

Add the rice

Stir-fry the rice: Turn heat up to high, toss and scoop the rice constantly, lifting from the bottom to introduce air and drive off moisture. Keep sautéing until the grains are no longer wet and begin to crisp, about 3 minutes.

Season the fried rice

Season and finish: Sprinkle in the salt, white pepper, garlic granules, and mushroom seasoning. Toss to combine and taste for seasoning.

Garnish and serve: Turn off the heat. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil, garnish with scallion greens, and top with crispy shallots, if using. Serve hot or warm.
