Cooking Steps

  1. 1

    Thinly slice the onion, julienne the green pepper, and shred the crab sticks by hand. Heat a small amount of oil (not included in the measurement) in a frying pan over high heat, quickly sauté the onion and pepper, then remove. Crack the eggs into a bowl, whisk well, and then mix in the sautéed vegetables and crab sticks.

    Advice : Sautéing the vegetables beforehand prevents the egg from becoming watery and brings out a distinct sweetness when mixed with the eggs.

    Ingredients
    Eggs 4 pieces
    Crab sticks 40g
    Onion 50g
    Green bell pepper 30g
  2. 2

    Place all sauce ingredients except for the sesame oil into a small pot, mix well, and then set over medium heat. Heat while stirring; once thickened and clear, turn off the heat and stir in the sesame oil for the finish.

    Advice : Potato starch tends to settle, so the secret to preventing lumps is to stir thoroughly from the bottom of the pot just before heating.

    Heat the sauce 2 min
    Ingredients
    Water 200ml
    Chicken stock powder 1 tsp
    Soy sauce 1 tbsp
    Vinegar 1 tbsp
    Sugar 1 tbsp
    Oyster sauce 1 tsp
    Potato starch 1 tbsp
    Sesame oil 1 tsp
  3. 3

    Portion the warm rice into individual serving bowls.

    Advice : Mounding the rice slightly into a round shape makes it easier to place the cooked egg on top and results in a more beautiful presentation.

    Ingredients
    Warm cooked rice 400g
  4. 4

    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a frying pan over high heat, and pour in half of the egg mixture. Stir vigorously with chopsticks, and once it reaches a soft-scrambled state, shape it and slide it onto the rice. Cook the remaining half in the same way.

    Advice : Make sure the pan is hot enough that you can see a slight wisp of smoke; pouring the egg in at that point will make it puff up and become wonderfully fluffy!

    Fry the egg 30 sec
    Ingredients
    Vegetable oil 2 tbsp
  5. 5

    Pour the warm sweet and sour sauce generously over the eggs and serve.

    Advice : If you need more color, sprinkle some white sesame seeds on top or garnish with red pickled ginger to sharpen the flavor.
