INGREDIENTS

  • Rice Base

    • 🍚 2 cups jasmine rice
    • 2 cups chicken stock
    • 💧 1 ½ cups water
    • 🧈 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

  • Cooking Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    • 🥚 2 large eggs, beaten
    • 3 tablespoons sesame seeds, or to taste
    • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
    • 🧂 ⅛ teaspoon salt
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

STEPS

1

Place rice, chicken stock, and water in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes. Off heat, stir in 2 tablespoons butter and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

2

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add beaten eggs and cook, stirring often to scramble eggs, breaking chunks of eggs into small bits with a spatula.

3

Place cooked rice in a large bowl; add scrambled eggs and toss until well combined.

4

Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add rice mixture, sesame seeds, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 8 minutes. Taste; season with butter or soy sauce as desired.
