Equipment

Ingredients

4 large eggs whisked
¼ teaspoon salt
3 cups cooked jasmine rice cold at least 1 day old
4 stalks green onion diced

Rice Seasoning

1 ½ tablespoon light soy sauce
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon white pepper
¼ teaspoon chicken bouillon powder

Instructions

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.
Add rice. Then 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.
Add green onion and seasonings. Next, add the green onion, light soy sauce, salt, white pepper, and chicken bouillon powder. And toss until everything is combined and the rice is evenly coated.
Serve. Transfer into individual bowls or a large serving plate. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
