From nostalgic stories of my chef training days, I'll show you how to make a rich fried rice using lard. You'll be surprised how much the oil's flavor changes when you use camellia lard or pure lard. Add more umami with a granulated soup base. Enjoy a hearty, rich flavor once in a while.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (1 serving)

  • Cooked Rice 250g
  • Egg 1 pc
  • Narutomaki (Fish Cake) 30g
  • Ham 30g
  • Green Onion 30g
  • Scallions (Green Onions) to taste

Seasonings

  • Lard 2 tbsp
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Soy Sauce 1 tsp
  • Granulated Chicken Stock Powder to taste

Steps

  1. Whisk 1 egg.
  2. Mix 1 tbsp of lard into 250g of warm cooked rice. [The Key!] Mixing lard thoroughly into freshly cooked rice creates a traditional rich flavor.
  3. Melt the remaining 1 tbsp of lard in a frying pan.
  4. Add the whisked 1 egg to the melted lard. Once the egg sizzles, add the lard-mixed rice and flip immediately.
  5. Stir-fry over low to medium heat, ensuring the egg is evenly mixed into the rice.
  6. Once the egg and rice are combined, add 30g of roughly chopped narutomaki (fish cake) and 30g of roughly chopped ham.
  7. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt and a pinch of pepper.
  8. Make a small well in the center of the pan, drizzle in 1 tsp of soy sauce, and stir-fry until fragrant.
  9. Increase heat and stir-fry. Add 30g of sliced green onion and toss to combine. [The Key!] If tossing is difficult, stir roughly with a spatula.
  10. Finish by scattering chopped scallions to taste over the top. It's ready!
