Ingredients

  • 6 cups of freshly cooked rice
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 bunches of green onions
  • 2 tablespoons of spicy pickled vegetables
  • 15-20 oysters
  • 3 sausages
  • 10 grams of soy sauce
  • 10 grams of vinegar

Instructions

  • After the rice is cooked, place the 6 cups together in one large container.
  • Crack the 4 eggs separating the yolks only into another individual container. Discard the eggs whites. Stir the egg yolks with chopsticks to smoothen.
  • While the rice is still hot, pour in the egg yolks and add a pinch of salt.
  • Stir the egg yolk and rice to mix thoroughly. Set the rice and egg mixture aside for use.
  • Peel and rinse the green onions. Utilizing both the entire green and white sections of the green onions, dice into small pieces about 1 cm long.
  • Prepare some spicy pickles according to personal preference. Dice 1-2 teaspoon of the spicy pickles into small pieces.
  • Rinse the oysters carefully with water and pat dry.
  • Cut a slide mark every half a centimeter into the sausage casing. Do not open the ends of the casing. Place it in the microwave for 10-20 seconds and then remove it. The cooked sausage will burst through the slits. This sausage can be placed on the plate when serving the egg fried rice.
  • Put a proper amount of cooking oil in the wok. Bring oil to high heat.
  • When the temperature of the oil rises high enough to create a slight green smoke on the surface, pour in the rice and egg mixture prepared in Step 4. Continue to flip and stir fry the mixture a few times quickly, evenly coating and heating the egg yolk on the surface of the rice grains. The mixture will become very fragrant.
  • Turn the heat down to medium and continue to stir fry. After about 1 minute of stir frying on medium, the egg yolk coated rice will become granular and will not stick to each other.
  • Stir in the chopped pickles.
  • Add the oysters. Stir in 10 grams of vinegar.
  • Once the stir-fry becomes fragrant with the vinegar scent, pour in soy sauce and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Continue to fry.
  • After the green onion cook to translucency, turn off the heat. The egg fried rice is now ready with its full body aroma and deep golden color.
  • You can mold the rice by firmly pressing it into any small container then releasing it onto a dish upside down. The microwave-heated sausage can also be placed on the dish when serving.
