Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Rice 2 cups (approx. 300g)
  • Canned Scallops 1 can (total weight 70g)
  • Sakura Shrimp (Dried) 10g
  • Butter 1 tbsp
  • Eggs 3 large
  • Shiso Leaves 2-3 leaves

Seasonings

  • [A] Grated Ginger 1 tsp
  • [A] Minced Garlic 1 tsp
  • [A] White Sesame Oil 3 tbsp
  • [A] Salt to taste
  • [A] Black Pepper to taste
  • [A] Sugar 1/3 tsp
  • XO Sauce 2 tbsp

Steps

  1. Prepare 2 cups of rice that has been soaked.
  2. In a rice cooker (or pot), combine 2 cups of rice, 1 can of canned scallops (total weight 70g) with their liquid, adjust to the standard water level, and cook the rice.
  3. In a frying pan, add 3 tbsp of white sesame oil and 1 can of canned scallops (total weight 70g) with their liquid. Heat over low heat. [Key Tip!] Adding the scallops before turning on the heat prevents oil splattering.
  4. Add the scallop meat and gently cook in the oil and moisture.
  5. Once the liquid from the canned scallops has evaporated and the mixture is bubbling, add 10g of dried sakura shrimp. Stir-fry over low heat until the sakura shrimp absorb the oil and scallop essence and plump up.
  6. Once the sakura shrimp have plumped, add 1 tsp of grated ginger and 1 tsp of minced garlic, and continue to stir-fry.
  7. Add a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper to adjust the flavor.
  8. When there is no more liquid, add 1/3 tsp of sugar and 1 tbsp of butter. Stir until melted, then turn off the heat. The XO sauce is complete.
  9. In a bowl, whisk 3 eggs.
  10. Add 2 tbsp of the prepared XO sauce to the beaten eggs and mix well.
  11. Serve the cooked scallop rice into bowls.
  12. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tbsp of white sesame oil.
  13. Pour in the egg mixture with XO sauce and quickly stir-fry until it's semi-cooked. [Key Tip!] To achieve a creamy texture, remove from heat when it seems slightly undercooked.
  14. Place the semi-cooked omelet over the rice.
  15. Garnish with torn 2-3 shiso leaves and serve.
