Place unheated instant rice or leftover rice into a mixing bowl and crack in 2 eggs.
Add 0.25 teaspoon of seasoning salt and mix well until the rice and eggs are evenly combined without clumping. Let sit for 3 minutes to allow the rice grains to absorb the egg mixture.
Finely chop the white parts of the green onion to make about 2 tablespoons, and cut the butter into small pieces.
Heat a pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and once hot, add the rice that has been mixed with egg.
Stir continuously until the rice grains are separated and fluffy, avoiding clumping.
Once the eggs are fully cooked, add the chopped green onion and stir gently for 30 seconds to preserve its fresh aroma without burning.
Turn off the heat, drizzle 1 teaspoon of sesame oil around the pan, and lightly mix to reduce any eggy odor.
Transfer the fried rice to a serving bowl, place the prepared butter on top of the hot rice, and evenly pour 1 tablespoon of fermented soy sauce over it before mixing and enjoying.
Mix leftover rice with eggs and seasoning salt, then let it soak for 3 minutes.
Heat a pan over medium heat, add vegetable oil, and stir-fry the rice until fluffy. Add chopped green onion and stir briefly.
Turn off the heat, mix in sesame oil, transfer to a bowl, and serve with butter and fermented soy sauce on the side.
Cooking tips 💡
Use instant rice without reheating—this prevents the grains from becoming sticky and ensures a fluffy texture when stir-fried.
Add green onion at the final stage and stir just briefly to preserve its fresh, crisp aroma and enhance flavor.
Do not melt the butter during cooking; instead, place it on top of the hot rice so it melts gradually from residual heat, preserving its rich, distinct aroma.
