ASIAN ESSENTIALS: EGG FRIED RICE
People that know me, know that I love rice... In all its brilliant forms. If you have ever been to an Asian restaurant, you probably have had egg-fried rice. It is usually fried with onion, and veggies. While that is good, sometimes, I just want some rice, with eggs and Asian seasonings. And, that is what this recipe is all...

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. About the rice. This recipe is best made with day-old cooked rice; however, there is a trick that you can use. Cook the rice according to package directions, then spread it out on a baking sheet, and let cool, and dry for an hour or two. It is not the same as using day-old rice, but it is pretty close. FYI: When making this recipe, I cook the rice with chicken stock, not water.
- 3. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
- 4. Place the three eggs into a bowl, add a bit of pepper, and whisk until combined.
- 5. Add a tablespoon of the grapeseed oil to a skillet over medium heat, allow to heat up, then add 2/3 thirds of the egg mixture.
- 6. Chef's Note: You do not have to be precise; however, of the whisked eggs, add about two of them, and leave the remainder in the bowl.
- 7. Lightly scramble, then remove from the pan, and reserve.
- 8. Add the remaining tablespoon of grapeseed oil to the skillet, let come up to temperature, and add the rice.
- 9. Use a spatula to lightly toss the rice until it heats up, then add the remaining whisked egg.
- 10. Toss until the egg is combined with the rice, and beginning to cook, then add the tamari sauce, and sesame oil.
- 11. Toss to combine, then add the reserved scrambled eggs.
- 12. Toss to combine with the rice, until warmed through, about 2 - 3 minutes.
- 13. Chef's Note: Do a final tasting for proper seasoning.
- 14. PLATE/PRESENT
- 15. Serve by itself, or with chicken, pork, or even fish. Enjoy.
- 16. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
