Seungwoo Dad's Crab Stick Golden Fried Rice

Cooking tips 💡

• Never heat the instant rice; using it cold prevents the starch from gelatinizing, ensuring the rice grains don't clump and separate well.
• The rice may seem mushy when you first start stir-frying, but keep stirring and cooking over high heat without stopping, and the moisture will eventually evaporate, making it fluffy.
• Crab sticks are high in protein. Frying them until deeply golden and crisp creates a richer flavor due to the Maillard reaction.
• Adding Cheongyang peppers or green onions in the final step ensures they remain crisp and provide a textural contrast, balancing the overall flavor.
