Main Ingredients
- 1 bowl of cooked rice (warm it up beforehand for best results)
- 1/2 pack of imitation crab meat (about 50-60g)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 medium onion
- A little cooking oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, crack the two eggs into a bowl. Whisk them thoroughly with a fork or whisk until the yolk and white are well combined. These beaten eggs will be used to make scrambled eggs.
Step 2
Peel and finely dice the half onion. Finely dicing the onion ensures a pleasant texture and harmonious blend in the fried rice.
Step 3
Shred or finely chop the imitation crab meat. Aim for a texture that resembles shredded crab meat.
Step 4
Heat a little cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs. As the eggs begin to set, gently stir them with chopsticks to create fluffy scrambled eggs. Cook them to bite-sized pieces without breaking them too much. Once cooked, transfer the scrambled eggs to a separate plate.
Step 5
Add a bit more cooking oil to the same pan. Add the finely diced onion and stir-fry over medium heat until the onion becomes translucent and releases a sweet aroma. Sautéing the onions well brings out their natural sweetness, significantly enhancing the fried rice’s flavor.
Step 6
Once the onions are translucent, add the shredded imitation crab meat. Stir-fry together with the onions for about 1-2 minutes, allowing the crab meat to warm through and meld with the flavors of the onion.
Step 7
Return the prepared scrambled eggs to the pan. Gently mix them with the sautéed onions and crab meat. Stir just enough to combine the ingredients well.
Step 8
Now, add the warmed cooked rice to the pan. Stir-fry everything together with a spatula, ensuring the rice is evenly mixed with the other ingredients. Press down gently with the spatula to break up any clumps of rice. Once the rice is fried to a slightly fluffy consistency, add the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until the flavors are well incorporated. Finally, drizzle in the sesame oil for a fragrant finish and turn off the heat.
Step 9
Serve the delicious crab stick fried rice in a bowl. It’s best enjoyed immediately while hot! You can serve it with your favorite side dishes like kimchi or pickled radish. (For cucumber kimchi recipes, refer to @7030993 for watery cucumber kimchi and @7031829 for white cucumber kimchi.)
