Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 4 whole scallions
  • 4 whole eggs
  • oil
Separate four scallions into whites and greens and slice each thinly; beat four eggs.
Heat the oil to around 350 (275 was too low and the eggs did not puff), then pour the eggs in a stream while swirling the oil so they form threads and shards rather than clumping.
When puffed and crispy, lift the egg into a sieve and press out as much oil as possible.
In a barely oiled wok, cook the scallion whites with the egg shards until aromatic.
Scallion whites first, greens last
Add two cups of rice and season 2:1:1 salt, sugar and MSG, tossing until coated.
  • 2 cup leftover rice
  • 2 parts salt
  • 1 parts sugar
  • 1 parts MSG
Add the scallion greens for just a few seconds, then flip into a ladle and plate.
