Recipe 🍳
- Finely mince the green onion, carrot, bacon, and onion, sliced thinly along the grain, preparing them for the fried rice.
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan, sauté the minced ingredients until golden brown, then add rice, ketchup, and oyster sauce to create a flavorful fried rice. Serve it piled high in a bowl.
- Generously coat a clean pan with cooking oil and pour in 3 well-beaten eggs, spreading them thinly. As the egg begins to set, use chopsticks to grab both ends and gently swirl towards the center, cooking it only to 60% doneness to create a soft, half-cooked omelet. Place this over the rice.
- Melt butter in a heated pot, add finely minced onion and garlic, and sauté until a sweet and savory aroma is released.
- Once the garlic and onion turn translucent, add 1/2 cup of water, tomato pasta sauce, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and pepper. Simmer over low heat until the sauce is complete.
- When the tangy-sweet sauce comes to a boil, turn off the heat. Pour the sauce neatly around the edges of the bowl, being careful not to cover the beautiful swirl of the omelet.
- Finally, lightly sprinkle parsley flakes in the center for an aromatic touch, enhancing the visually stunning presentation.
- Sauté minced vegetables and bacon with ketchup and oyster sauce to make savory fried rice, then serve in a bowl.
- Pour 3 eggs into a pan with plenty of oil, use chopsticks to spin the center, creating a 60% half-cooked swirled omelet, and place it on top of the rice.
- Sauté garlic and onion in butter, then simmer with tomato pasta sauce and seasonings. Plate the sauce beautifully around the omelet.
Cooking tips 💡
- To successfully create the swirled omelet, don't skimp on the oil in the pan; generous oil allows the egg to swirl smoothly without tearing. It should be cooked to a perfect 60% doneness, remaining moist, for the wavy pattern to set beautifully.
- By simmering store-bought tomato pasta sauce with the rich flavors of butter and minced garlic, this sauce achieves a deeper, more complex taste than a simple ketchup sauce, reminiscent of Italian restaurant dishes.
