Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- Egg 2 pieces
- Scallion 1/2 bunch
- Mayonnaise 3 tablespoons
- Red pepper powder 1 teaspoon
- Rice 1 bowl
- Light soy sauce 1 teaspoon
- Tonkatsu sauce 1 teaspoon
- Salt a pinch
- Black pepper to taste
Recipe 🍳
- Heat vegetable oil in a pan, crack in 2 eggs, lightly season with salt, and scramble briefly while stirring. Remove and set aside.
- Add finely chopped scallions to the same pan and stir-fry with 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise until the fragrant scallion oil aroma rises.
- Once the rich scallion oil scent develops, add 1 teaspoon of red pepper powder and stir gently to create a spicy chili oil.
- Add 1 bowl of rice, 1 teaspoon of light soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of tonkatsu sauce. Continue stir-frying over medium heat until the rice grains become fluffy and separate.
- Return the previously set-aside scrambled eggs to the pan and mix thoroughly. (If needed, adjust seasoning with additional salt.)
- Turn off the heat and generously sprinkle black pepper to finish.
- Scramble 2 eggs with a pinch of salt, then set aside.
- Sauté chopped scallions with mayonnaise and red pepper powder in order to bring out a fragrant chili oil.
- Combine rice, light soy sauce, tonkatsu sauce, and scrambled eggs, stir-fry until well mixed, then finish with black pepper.
Cooking tips 💡
- Mayonnaise contains seasonings that can burn easily under high heat, so cook it over medium-low heat to gently extract the scallion aroma for best results.
- Tonkatsu sauce adds umami and a distinctive tanginess, balancing the richness that mayonnaise might otherwise introduce.
- When using instant rice, use it cold straight from the package—do not reheat it—to achieve a satisfyingly fluffy texture.
