Description

A delicious fried rice recipe using day-old jasmine rice and fresh green onions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs (whisked)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups cooked jasmine rice (cold at least 1 day old)
  • 4 stalks green onion (diced)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder

Instructions

  1. Scramble the eggs. In a small mixing bowl, gently whisk together the eggs and salt until just combined. In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until hot. Once the pan is hot, add the eggs and wait until the bottom is lightly set. Then scramble the eggs until mostly set and lightly runny.
  2. Add rice. Add the day-old rice on top of the eggs, toss to combine, and break up the rice clumps as much as possible. Cook until the rice is heated through, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add green onion and seasonings. Next, add the green onion, light soy sauce, salt, white pepper, and chicken bouillon powder. Toss until everything is combined and the rice is evenly coated.
  4. Serve. Transfer into individual bowls or a large serving plate. Serve immediately. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Using day-old rice helps to prevent it from becoming mushy when cooked.
  • You can add other vegetables or protein to the fried rice for added flavor.
