Instructions

Step 1

Notes

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat and add the garlic and whites of the scallions, if using. Cook for a couple of minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and fragrant. Add the strained rice, and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to toast lightly. Pour over 3 cups of water, stir, and bring to a bowl. Reduce the heat to low, cover with a tilted lid and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and fluffy. Remove from the heat and allow to air dry while you make the eggs.

Step 3

Heat a large (preferably non-stick) skillet over medium heat. Add enough oil to coat the pan before cracking in the eggs. Cook eggs to your desired doneness.

Step 4

While the eggs are cooking, whisk the sauce together in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 5

Add the rice to a bowl, top with two eggs, drizzle over the sauce to taste ( a little goes a long way), and top with the greens of the scallions if using. Enjoy!
