The story behind

Yakimeshi is the perfect solution for transforming yesterday's rice into a feast. I love the technique of integrating the egg so it coats the rice grains, giving them that appetizing golden color. It's a dish cooked very quickly over high heat, which keeps the vegetables vibrant. The final touch of fresh green onion provides that note of freshness that cuts through the intensity of the soy sauce. It is, quite simply, the ideal side dish or a single plate full of textures.

Instructions

  1. 1
    In a wok or large skillet with oil, cook the chicken until golden.
  2. 2
    Add the beaten egg and scramble quickly so it cooks into small pieces.
  3. 3
    Incorporate the rice and stir-fry over high heat, breaking up any lumps so it browns evenly.
  4. 4
    Add the soy sauce and sesame oil, mixing well.
  5. 5
    Turn off the heat, add the fresh green onions, and serve immediately.
