- 0.5 Tbsp corn syrup or honey (for subtle sweetness)
- A pinch of salt
- 4 Tbsp water
- 1.5 Tbsp soy sauce

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
In a large bowl, crack 5 fresh eggs. Shred the imitation crab sticks lengthwise and add them to the bowl. Stir in 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, a pinch of black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together well.
Step 2
Gently whisk the egg and crab stick mixture until smooth and well combined. Ensure there are no large lumps for a softer, more pleasant texture when cooked.
Step 3
Thinly slice the 1/2 onion. In a separate small bowl, combine 1.5 tablespoons of soy sauce, 0.5 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 0.5 tablespoon of corn syrup (or honey) for a gentle sweetness, and 4 tablespoons of water. Whisk together to create the sauce.
Step 4
Place the sliced onions in a small pot or pan and pour the prepared sauce over them. Simmer over medium-low heat until the onions become translucent and the sauce slightly thickens. Be careful not to overcook; allow the onions to soften and release their sweetness into the sauce.
Step 5
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add a little cooking oil. Pour in the prepared crab stick and egg mixture. Using a silicone spatula, gently stir and scramble the eggs from the outside towards the center until they are just cooked and still moist. Aim for soft, fluffy curds.
Step 6
Place 2 servings of warm cooked rice into your serving bowls. Spoon the gently simmered, sweet and savory glazed onions evenly over the rice. The onions will add a wonderful layer of flavor.
Step 7
Finally, carefully top the onions with the fluffy, moist crab stick and egg scramble. For an extra touch, you can garnish with shredded nori seaweed or sesame seeds. Mix everything together with the rice and enjoy this delicious one-bowl meal!
