Egg Fried Rice
Cold, day-old rice fried hot and fast with egg, scallion, and soy sauce until each grain separates.
Where it comes from
Fried rice began as a way to use up leftover cooked rice rather than waste it, a household habit found across Chinese regional cooking well before it became a restaurant dish abroad.
What cooks argue about
Cooks argue over scrambling the egg separately and folding it back in at the end, versus cracking it straight into the hot rice, which changes how evenly it coats each grain.
Nobody has published a egg fried rice recipe yet. The page stays out of search until one exists, which is the rule for every thin page here.
