Chef's Notes & Tips

Tip 1 of 3

To achieve the perfect runny yolk, keep the heat on medium-low and cover the pan for the last 30 seconds of frying the egg; this sets the whites without overcooking the center.

Tip 2 of 3

If your leftover rice is very dry, add a tablespoon of water or broth to the pan while reheating to steam it back to a fluffy texture.

Tip 3 of 3

For extra umami, grate a small amount of fresh ginger into the sauce along with the garlic.
