Scallion Fried Rice

Scallion Fried Rice

Updated November 3, 2026

Day old rice stir fried hot with scallions, egg, soy sauce, and small amount of sesame oil. Light, fast, and built to sit next to stir fried mains without overpowering them.

Designed to pair with chicken stir fry (classic, enhanced, extreme), wok fried noodles, blistered green beans, and any sauce driven Asian main. If rice begins to steam instead of fry, increase heat and spread rice into flat layer briefly.

For drier, more restaurant style finish, refrigerate rice uncovered for 20 minutes before cooking.
