Ingredients

• Japanese short grain rice
• Scallions
• Onions
• Shrimp
• Jidori eggs (or regular eggs)
• Soy sauce
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Oil

Instructions

1. Spread leftover rice on a sheet tray and separate each grain evenly. Let it dehydrate overnight in the fridge.
2. Crumple up each grain and separate them. Bring the rice to room temperature.
3. Cut scallions and onions into thin rounds and slices respectively. Beat the eggs until fully incorporated.
4. Cook each ingredient separately in a smoking hot wok with enough oil to cover the surface.
5. Cook the eggs until there's no color and set them aside. Partially cook the shrimp and set them aside.
6. Fry the rice in the wok until the water evaporates and the surface crisps. Be careful not to over-fry.
7. Reintroduce the other ingredients and incorporate them together. Season with black pepper and soy sauce.
8. Add scallions and cook until they're incorporated. Finish with a sprinkle of scallions for color.
